Hi All,
I'm a newby to the forum and would like to share the frustrations I have found.
I have been putting together a co - op of people to invest in a medium scale production facility for the past 3 - 4 months. We are looking at the southside of the river - all the big boys are to the north ! I have been investigating the "containerised plants" on the o/s market. I am totally blown away with the general wall of bs I have hit ! Pricing starts from 10K euro to 3 million euro to produce 20k litres a week. Many Aus operators have grabbed "agencies" from the european suppliers and provide little or no service to prospective clients. I have found this to be happening as these "agents" are setting up their own plants and/or trying to build a monopoly. All is fair in business but here comes another "petro monopoly"
The reason for us looking at the containerised systems is easy access to the European technology. Considering they are probably 10 years advanced over Aus. The whole idea behind these systems is to decentralise the production of biodiesel and make it an affordable product to the general public everywhere.
I had one "agent" try and tell me the market in Qld will be flooded and I would not be able to sell the stuff! What the ! Dude, sell me the plant, keep your marketing !
We have looked at feed stock alternatives and the given up on used oil options (people or gettn gready !) and are importing our own oil extractors. We are now contracting seed feed stock.
After my little winge, has anyone had any dealings with "Containerised" systems?
I think I will have to learn to weld ! If you guys and make plants from old hot water systems, I could make something myself on a larger scale !
Also anyone know anything about new gov regs coming in July ?
Anyone heard anything about this new microreactor developed or is it bs ?
The size of a credit card and not chemicals needed.
