Biodiesel Processor
Morph is a fully automatic portable Bio Diesel processor developed by the team at Simply Biofuels. Between June 2006 and March 2008 the management of Simply Biofuels headed by one of the world’s leading BioDiesel authorities, Dennis Thouless, designed and developed Morph using the principles behind the large processing technologies that had been deployed so successfully in a UK based 500,000 litres per week BioDiesel plant. In a combined project with CP Holdings, the biggest mid-market company in the South East of Engalnd and number 3 in Britain, Simply Biofuels completed the prototyping of the 500 litres per hour BioDiesel processor.
Bio Diesel for all
Launched under the brand name of Morph in April 2008 plans are already underway to work closely with organizations involved in the cultivation of local oil bearing crops on marginal land. Dennis Thouless - The ‘Father’ of the UK Bio-Diesel Industry In 2001, at an age when he should have been putting his feet up and enjoying a well earned retirement, Dennis Thouless pioneered Bio-Diesel processing in the UK and is now widely acknowledged to be a leading authority within the global bio-fuels industry, many considering him to be the father of the UK Biofuels industry. During the next 4 years Dennis developed a Bio-Diesel processing plant in Norfolk, which at its peak was the largest producer of the fuel in Europe (500,000 litres a week).
Dennis was aware that the environmental advantages resulting from using the fuel were in many ways negated by the production of carbon emissions resulting from wide geographic distribution of both the raw materials and the processed oils. In 2006 Dennis, now in his 70s, set out to design and build a portable, fully automatic small industrial bio-diesel plant, incorporating a full range of patented safety features. He reflects “I saw the future of bio-diesel being in the development of community projects; establishing local production capability, processing oil from locally grown crops and supplying Bio-Diesel to local businesses and consumers.” He continued “Safety is the key - we have incorporated unique design features to optimise safety throughout the process” Morph is a truly innovative system and is being heralded as the best and safest small volume Biofuels processing plant in the world.
Bio Diesel Standards
Morph Bio-Diesel meets both the rigorous EN14214 European quality standard and the EN590 standard for blended product which is the retail pump quality standard. “Many companies struggle to produce bio-diesel to the required standards” says Dennis, adding “Using our processing technology guarantees these standards will be met from the very first batch”. CP Holdings & IP Equipment Limited March 2008 Watford based CP Holdings acquired a controlling interest in the technology under the umbrella of its subsidiary IP Equipment have now acquired a controlling interest in Simply Biofuels.
