Stripping Systems for Biodiesel Purification
Clark Solutions’ stripping systems are essential in biodiesel refining and glycerin recovery for the removal of undesired volatile components. Our technology uses columns equipped with MaxiFlow® CC liquid distributors and high-performance MaxiPac structured packing, ensuring uniform distribution and a large surface area for contact. By promoting efficient mass transfer between the rising vapor and the countercurrent liquid, we ensure product purity and compliance with technical specifications. With the integration of MaxiChevron mist eliminators, we reduce the entrainment of viscous fluids, minimizing losses and protecting the overall profitability of the production process.
Technical Advantages and Profitability in the Refining Process
Regulatory Compliance
Precise sizing of the internals to meet regulatory standards for residual impurities in biodiesel and glycerin.
Input Recovery
Efficient removal of excess methanol and water after phase separation, enabling safe reuse of components.
High Profitability
Rigorous purification of glycerin, transforming this byproduct into a high-value asset for the plant.
Performance with Complex Fluids
Use of MaxiChevron eliminators at the top of the column, ideal for handling viscous and contaminated fluids.
Operational Flexibility
Solutions designed to maintain efficiency across different operating ranges and feed flow rates.
