CA 2599499

An apparatus for the production of a bio-fuel or a bio-fuel additive from plant-derived oils, animal fats or a mixture thereof, suitable for use in a diesel engine is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a porous membrane for separating a reaction mixture from a permeate, the reaction mixture comprising an alcohol, a feedstock comprising plant-derived oils, animal fats or mixture thereof, and a catalyst for converting said feedstock to a bio-fuel or a bio- fuel additive, wherein said porous membrane is substantially impermeable to the feedstock and substantially permeable to said bio-fuel or bio-fuel additive. A method using said porous membrane in the production of a bio-fuel or a bio-fuel additive is also disclosed

L~invention concerne un appareil pour la production d'un biocombustible ou d~un adjuvant de biocombustible issu d~huiles végétales, de graisses animales ou de leurs mélanges, approprié pour être utilisé dans un moteur diesel. L~appareil comprend une membrane poreuse destinée à séparer un mélange réactionnel d~un perméat, le mélange réactionnel comprenant un alcool, une charge comprenant des huiles végétales, des graisses animales ou leurs mélanges et un catalyseur pour convertir ladite charge en un biocombustible ou un adjuvant de biocombustible, ladite membrane poreuse étant sensiblement imperméable à la charge et sensiblement perméable audit biocombustible ou adjuvant de biocombustible. L~invention concerne également un procédé utilisant ladite membrane poreuse pour la production d~un biocombustible ou d~un adjuvant de biocombustible.
