COLDFLOW 350 is a biodiesel winter additive for use in controlling the plugging points of biodiesel in cold weather. Coldflow 350 has been thoroughly tested with a wide range of biodiesel types and produced excellent results. Coldflow 350 will give the biodiesel producer the comfort of knowing that their biodiesel will not be affected by cold weather conditions.
HOW COLDFLOW 350 WORKS -
Biodiesel will cloud like petroleum diesel fuel when the weather gets cold. Initially we see little crystals of wax forming and these crystals will begin to clog fuel filters. When it becomes colder still, the biodiesel will form into a gel that will eventually set solid. Depending on the type of oils used to make your biodiesel ie. virgin rape seed oil has a lower pour-point (or CFPP -- Cold-Filter Plugging Point) than used cooking oil (UCO, WVO) mixtures. This is due to the level of saturation, or number of hydrogen atoms present. This is determined by the Iodine value. Generally the higher the Iodine value of the oil, the biodiesel esters produced will take on a lower pour point. To avoid this problem we suggest your produced biodiesel is treated with ColdFlow 350, flow improver additive that has been specifically designed to modify the wax crystals, lowering the pour point of the fuel.
DOSAGE LEVELS -
TREATMENT PROCEDURE -
A 50L batch would require the addition of 150ml of Cold Flow 350. This addition should allow your fuel to achieve -16 ~ -18 deg C
APPLICATION -
Cold Flow 350 must be added at greater than 20 deg C. In Fuelpod 2 and 3 systems the best time to add the product is after the glycerine drain, prior to purification. In Fuelpod 1 systems the product should be added after washing but the temperature must be greater the 20 deg C.
