When new processes need that little push to make it to the big time everybody searches high and low for a eureka moment. When it comes…the questions become what’s next and what does it mean?
United States Sustainable Energy Corp., a biodiesel energy producer, works to produce cost efficient biodiesel fuels while – as a byproduct – also producing an organic fertilizer. Realizing 18 years of research, the company can now lay claim to a product that has the possibility of replacing biodiesel fuels that once degraded engine efficiencies.
Perhaps one of the product’s purest strengths is its efficiency. A recently announced, new breakthrough indicates that the process produces three times the amount of biodiesel per unit, at a higher grade, then most biofuels and at a lower total cost. Ultimately, this eliminates a stumbling block to many end-users. The resultant byproduct of the process is the efficiency that most manufactured products do not have, and the one that makes bio the power house word that it is. This biodiesels’ waste product is an organic ash that can be used to grow the feedstock for the biodiesel, completing the cycle.
There is little doubt that this new product has a place in the diesel world of biofuels. Ramp costs may be a bit prohibitive until a guaranteed market is apparent but it will become apparent sooner rather than later. The company has a fully functional plant (not set-up for the new process) in Mississippi and a staff in place. Where this new process moves from this point forward is anybody’s guess but it is likely to be a positive direction.
