October 29, 2003
A method for the production of electrical power by a diesel engine (9) connected to an alternator (10) which has biodiesel as fuel is described. The waste heat of the diesel engine is applied for the production of biodiesel.This cogeneration system contributes to the demand for so called "green" electrical and automotive energy by using fuels produced out of (waste) oils and fats of vegetable and animal origin. The carbondioxide emission in burning these fuels, is neutral to the environment.
