5 How do you determine which Technology fits your needs Supercritical Production Method preferred for production olumes between 5 to 15 Million/Year 0 5M 7.5M 10M 12.5M 15M 17.5M 20M Traditional Production Method preferred for production olumes Below 12.5 Million/Year Hybrid Renewable Diesel Technology preferred for production olumes aboe 12.5 Million/Year Important Note: The aboe production method is recommended due to the factors such as Feedstock aailability around the plant, Capital Cost and Technological adantages

6 How do you determine which Technology fits your needs Capital Cost per Gal $2.50 $2.00 $1.50 $1.00 $0.50 SUPERCRITICAL METHOD TRADITIONAL METHOD HYBRID RENEWABLE DIESEL 5M 7.5M 10M 12.5M 15M 17.5M 20M 22.5M Production Volume (Million per Year)

7 Who should opt for Supercritical Biodiesel Technology Aailable feedstock FFA great than 20% by Wt. min. Need for a high purity finished product (Methyl Ester), exceed ASTM Need for high purity byproduct (Glycerin), Tech. Grade >95% pure. Increased Methyl Ester yield compared to Traditional Biodiesel Technology. Aoid Catalyst use all together and expect 30% higher energy cost. Grant money aailable to reduce capital inestment. Intent to deelop high alue products from pure Methyl Ester in future. Need process simplicity and less day to day monitoring. Need for low maintenance.

10 What is Supercritical Method (833) Supercritical is a state aboe critical point attained through high temperatures and pressures, where distinct liuid and gas phases does not exist. This property allows oils & fats to dissole into methanol under supercritical state, which is not possible under atmosphere een with a catalyst. Small changes to temperatures and pressures result in large changes in density and help accelerate the reactions beyond normal conditions. Methanol Oils & Fats (up to 100% FFA) Heat Exchanger Supercritical Reactor Back Pressure Vale Time: 10 to 40 minutes Pressure: 1000 to 4000 PSIG Temperature: 250C to 400C Catalyst: None, what so eer. Methyl Ester (Biodiesel) 99% Conersion Rate Adantages: No Catalyst Oils & Fats (up to 100% FFA) No Soap formation Low Capital High Quality Esters Process Simplicity Small Footprint Tolerates Moisture High Ester Yield Low Reaction Time Patented Technology Commercialized & Proen High Pressure Pump

16 Budgetary Estimate to Build a Biodiesel Supercritical Production Facility Itemized expense distribution based on the past project data. It cost between $2.00 to $2.50 to build a 5 Million Gallon per year (50TPD) Supercritical Biodiesel Production Facility due to the smaller size of the plant. Please note, it will cost closer to $2.00 to build a facility between 10 to 15 Million Gallon per year, due to construction cost and scale dynamics.
