Brazil biodiesel project to serve family farms

Source : biodieselmagazine.com

Brazilian energy company Companhia Paranaense de Energia, or Copel, recently announced it is developing a small-scale biodiesel plant in São Jorge d'Oeste, Brazil. The project, which includes a research component, will include the installation of a biodiesel processing unit that will serve local family farms. An agreement establishing the project was signed at Copel's headquarters in late December. The agreement establishes the role of 10 partners that are participating in the project. The plant will have a production capacity of 5'000 liters (1'320 gallons) per day. If operated seven days a week, this equates to a production capacity of approximately 480'000 gallons per year. A separate facility planned to be located adjacent to the biodiesel plant will process waste materials into animal feed and other products.
