<strong>in</strong>side the laboratory section<br />

Esterification from fatty acids is achieved by us<strong>in</strong>g a Supercritical process. The reactor<br />

conditions make esterification possible without us<strong>in</strong>g catalyst (NaOH, KOH etc.)<br />

Fluidized Bed Dryer<br />

reactor<br />

There is a fluidized bed dryer to prepare dried biomass for activated carbon process<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

This mach<strong>in</strong>e will dry biomass before feed<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>to the rotary kiln reactor that is used to<br />

produce activated carbons. The system is capable <strong>of</strong> process<strong>in</strong>g 50 tonnes/day<br />

Rotary Kiln<br />

Centrifugal fan (Green) <strong>in</strong> front for air supply<br />

This Rotary kiln is used to produce activated carbon. The system is fed with steam and<br />

charcoal orig<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g from Pyrolysis <strong>of</strong> biomass. The operational temperature lies around<br />

800 – 1,000° C and the Rotary kiln is slowly turned dur<strong>in</strong>g operation to <strong>in</strong>crease reaction
