Port of Dalhousie, NB Description of Project
3.00 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
3.01 Process
3.01.01 Introduction
The proposed project is a new biodiesel production facility owned by 2B Green
BioEnergy and scheduled to be constructed in the Port of Dalhousie, New Brunswick.
The projected final production capacity of biodiesel is 70 million litres per year
(MMLPY) from various feedstocks, including beef tallow and choice white grease.
The E3 FullSpectrum Processor is a batch biodiesel production process. The E3

processors are factory built, skid mounted and function tested before delivery. This
means that they are easy to install and that costs for site engineering and the production
facility are kept low. A list of the major capital equipment required for the project is
shown in Attachment 7.05.
3.01.02 E3 FullSpectrum Processor

The E3 FullSpectrum Biodiesel processor is built to industrial design standards. All raw
material and biodiesel wetted parts are made of stainless steel to ensure a long lifetime.
The process equipment is from established industrial suppliers that can provide local
maintenance, parts and support. The processor is compliant with all North American
design standards, including UL, FM and CEC requirements.
The E3 FullSpectrum Biodiesel processor is built for batch processing with an advanced
processing technique for maximum range in raw material and maximum yield. This
means that the processor is very flexible and can handle any raw material that contains
fatty acids such as ordinary vegetable oils but also crude palm oil, used cooking oil
(UCO, WCO), animal fat and fish oil with a Free Fatty Acids (FFA) content up to 12%.
A high level of automation allows the operator to easily switch from one raw material to
another by changing processing recipes. The processor can operate both as a stand alone
unit or in conjunction with a large number of other units.
The processor is delivered with a performance guarantee specifying quantity and quality
which guarantees that the biodiesel produced will meet ASTM D6751 or EN 14214
standards as long as the raw material specifications and operating instructions are
followed.
Information on the E3 FullSpectrum processor is provided in Attachment 7.08.
A typical flow diagram for an E3 FullSpectrum processor is shown below:

3.01.03 Biodiesel Chemistry

Materials used for producing biodiesel are generally any fats and oils. This specifically is
a mixture of triglycerides of different free fatty acids with various carbon chain lengths
(typically 10 to 20 carbons in a chain). The transesterification reaction is a reaction
between triglycerides and alcohols (typically methanol) under certain conditions to make
fatty acid alcohol esters (FAME if using methanol) which is what we call “biodiesel”.
This reaction is slow and the reaction rate will be accelerated by adding alkaline catalyst
into the reaction mixture. The following diagram shows the alkali-catalyzed
transesterification reaction:
O O
|| ||
CH2 – O – C – R1 CH3 – O – C – R1 CH2 – OH
| O H O |
| || | Alkaline || |
CH3 – O – C – R2 + 3 HO – C – H ------------> CH3 – O – C – R2 + CH – OH
| O | Catalyst O |
| || H || |
CH2 – O – C – R3 CH3 – O – C – R3 CH2 – OH
(Triglycerides) (Methanol) (Mixture of FAME) (Glycerin)
R1, R2, R3 represent the carbon chain of free fatty acids. Theoretically, 1 part of
triglycerides needs 3 parts of methanol to make 3 parts of biodiesel and 1 part of glycerol.
The reaction temperature needs to be controlled to around 70-80 ºC. A higher
temperature increases the reaction rate to make biodiesel faster, but it also increases the
possibility of side reactions which leads to low biodiesel yield and quality.
The produced glycerin is a heavier liquid and it settles out from the biodiesel after the
reaction is completed. Biodiesel can then be obtained by separating glycerin by draining
or other separation methods, such as centrifuging.
The raw oil should be water-free or at very low water levels, since hydrolysis reactions
may occur along with transesterification reaction. Hydrolysis will turn the glycerides
into free fatty acids which will react with and consume the alkaline catalyst added into
the reaction. This side effect not only reduces the catalyst activation, but also forms
soaps which cause many problems in the biodiesel process.
3.01.04 Process Flow Diagram

The general process for the entire plant can be visualized with a process flow diagram
(PFD), which is included as Attachment 7.01.
The Process Design Criteria that is the basis for this Project Plan is included as
Attachment 7.02.
3.01.05 Material Handling and Storage

Raw Oil
The feedstock used in the process could be various grades of raw oil or fat.
Raw oil is normally delivered in bulk to the site by tanker truck or rail car and
stored in dedicated storage tanks in the tank farm. The feedstock will be
automatically transferred from the storage tanks to the processors through a
charge pump controlled by the operator.
Biodiesel Product
The biodiesel product is normally stored in dedicated storage tanks and collected
in bulk by tanker trucks or rail cars. Transfer of product from the process to
storage, and from storage to collection vehicles, will be through dedicated loading
systems. The system totalizes the flow of the biodiesel and provides overfill and
grounding protection for the truck or rail car.
Methanol
Fresh methanol is normally delivered in bulk to the site by tanker truck and stored
in a dedicated storage tank. A dedicated grounding monitoring system protects
the unload system and truck, and redundant level monitoring systems prevent tank
overfill. The methanol transfer from storage tanks to processors is a sealed
system automated by the processor control system.
Crude Glycerin
The crude glycerin is normally stored in a dedicated tank and collected in bulk by
tanker trucks. Transfer of crude glycerin from the processor to storage, and from
storage to collection vehicles, will be through over-ground process piping.
Sodium Methylate
Sodium methylate used in the process is typically sodium methoxides dissolved in
methanol. The methylate is purchased from chemical suppliers and normally
delivered in bulk by tanker trucks.with a concentration around 30%. Delivery of
methylate from tank to processors is automated via over-ground piping.
Additives
Additives generally include antioxidants and wintering agents. Addition of
antioxidants increases the biodiesel stability for relatively long-term storage.
Wintering agents typically reduce the cloud point of biodiesel and increase its
cold flow properties.
Additives are purchased from available fuel additives suppliers usually pre-
dissolved in biodiesel. Onsite preparation of high concentration additives is
another option by adding the additives into biodiesel with a set ratio.
Wastes
The waste products from the biodiesel production will be spent filter media,
which will need to be changed every 3-5 weeks. Waste will be contained in
dedicated storage equipment and transported by road vehicles for disposal off-site
at a certified facility.
Further information about the material handling and storage is given in Attachment 7.02
design criteria.
3.01.06 Energy Balance

Each biodiesel processor module requires 884 kW of heat from either hot water or steam
for the reaction. Additionally, approximately 500 kW of waste heat from the processor is
available for tank heating or other low-value heat requirements. The result is that the net
process heat requirement for the processors is very low as long as a use is found for the
waste heat.
Energy consumption values based on one metric ton of biodiesel produced are shown
below:
Electrical Power, kWh 26

Natural Gas, GJ 0.85
Details for the energy balance are shown on the Mass/Energy Balance (Attachment 7.04)
and on the design criteria included as Attachment 7.02.
3.01.07 Mass Balance

A simplified mass balance for a single processor module is shown in the table below:
Inputs kg/day Outputs kg/day

Raw Oil 90,898 Biodiesel 88,100
Methanol 17,596 Methanol (Recovered) 9,427
Sulfuric Acid 440 Glycerin 11,742
Sodium Methylate 405 Other Losses 250
Citric Acid 180
3.02 Site and Site Development

The project site is an approximately three hectare site located on the waterfront to the north of
the Town of Dalhousie on the south shore of the Bay of Chaleur. The site is today owned by the
Port of Dalhousie Inc., a private entity operated by the Longshoremen. The site is presently
vacant. It had in the past been used by Brunswick Mines and Xstarata for the storage of ores,
i.e., copper, lead and zinc, all of which are mined locally. The lands were cleaned by Xstarata
when they vacated the site.
The site is bounded to the north by containment disposal cells used to contain dredged materials
from the port; to the south across the rail tracks and William Street to the town property. To the
east is the lagoon that separates this peninsula from the lands that had been occupied by the pulp
and paper mill and to the west are the waters of the Bay of Chaleur.
Development of the project site will require cutting and grading of approximately 10,000 cubic
meters of soil, all of which will be reused as fill on the project site. Approximately 10,000 cubic
meters of clean engineered fill will be brought onto the site for stabilizing and leveling of the
developed project area. Development of the project site will primarily be the responsibility of
the Port of Dalhousie.
The plant area will be graded such that the land rises slightly at the lot boundaries and all rainfall
on the property will be collected and treated prior to discharge. The plant yard and tank farm
will be paved with concrete suitable for the truck traffic anticipated.
Rainfall on the site will be collected and treated appropriately prior to discharge. Rain falling on
the building and collected in downspouts will be discharged directly to a stormwater outfall to
the north of the property in the drainage basis on this property. Rainwater falling on the truck
traffic area will be collected and passed through an oil / water separator prior to discharge into a
bioswale to the north. Water falling on the truck and railcar loading areas will be collected in an
underground vault which will be pumped out upon confirmation that the contents are not
contaminated. Water falling onto the tank farm area will collect in dry sumps which will be
pumped out to the bioswale outfall upon confirmation that the contents are not contaminated.
The access road to the plant will tie into existing streets at the southeast corner, which is the
intersection of William and George Streets. Rail car access will be provided by installing a
switch on the track just to the east of the road intersection, and running a spur along the southern
edge of the plant to the tank farm. Ship and barge access will be through an underground
pipeline to a loading facility on the West Wharf.
The plant site will be fenced with an automated gate. Security cameras and communication
equipment to secure the site will be installed.
Utilities will be obtained from the various agencies serving the area. Electrical power will be
obtained from the local utility who will install their plant transformer at the site boundary. Water
for fire suppression and potable uses is available at the southeastern boundry of the site. Sanitary
sewage will tie in to existing sanitary conveyance lines.
Site general arrangement drawings are shown in Attachment 7.03.

3.03 Buildings and Structures

The Port of Dalhousie will construct a new 9,200 square meter building on the site.
Approximately one quarter of the building will be occupied by the 2B Green biodiesel plant, and
the remainder of the building will be leased to other tenants.
The 2B Green portion of the building will house the process equipment, offices, laboratory and
control systems. Two tank farm areas will be constructed, one to the north of the building for
day tanks and methanol storage, and the other to the west for the main storage tanks. Truck
loading and unloading equipment will be installed between the west tank farm and the building.
Rail loading/unloading equipment will be installed on the new rail spur at the south end of the
west tank farm.
The process building to be constructed is generally 61 by 150.8 meters and will be approximately
13 meters high at the roof peak. The eave height of the building will be 7.62 meters. This
building will be a metal clad, steel frame building. The building will be designed to meet all
aspects of Canada’s National Building Code. The building will have roll-up doors on all sides
for installation of the equipment and movement of service materials.
Inside the building, about 80% of the 2B Green floor space will be an open area for installation
of the process equipment. In this area, the FullSpectrum Processors will be installed along with
some of the auxiliary process equipment.
The west bay of the building will have a two story office, control room, electrical room and
utility area constructed within the main shell. On the ground floor, this bay will have an area
devoted to the storage of hazardous materials in totes, an area for installation of process utilities
including the plant air compressor, process boiler, chillers and nitrogen supply system, an
electrical room for process electrical equipment and a rest room. On its second floor, spaces will
be built to house the plant office, the process control room and laboratory. Space will also be
provided for parts and maintenance equipment storage.
The tank farm for the plant will be built along the north and west sides of the site. The west tank
farm will consist of two feedstock tanks, two biodiesel tanks and one glycerin storage tank. The
north tank farm will contain a methanol tank, a catalyst tank, two biodiesel holding tanks, and
two process vessels. The tank farm area will include space for future day tanks and a future
spent methanol tank. All tanks will be installed on a concrete foundation designed for the lateral
loads appropriate to the port area.
The tank farm area will include secondary containment for all tanks. The secondary containment
will be divided into two sections, one to protect the biodiesel and feed stock tanks and one to
contain the methanol and catalyst tanks.
The main containment area will be surrounded by a wall one meter high with sufficient volume
to contain the largest tank plus a 24 hour 100-year rainfall event. The methanol containment
area will be surrounded by a wall 1.5 meters high. The containment structure meets the
requirements of Environment Canada for spill protection.

Equipment for unloading trucks delivering bulk feedstock and methanol shipments to the site and
for loading bulk trucks with biodiesel and raw glycerin will be installed west of the building. A
loading rack with a top loading arm including a platform, gangway and safety cage will be
installed for loading biodiesel. Additionally, the electrical transformer will be installed outside.
3.04 Environmental
In accordance with the requirements of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2B Green
has contracted CBCL Limited to prepare an environmental screening for the proposed project.
The Project Description, as the first step in this process, is provided as a component part of the
submission to NRCan. Given the industrial context of the site and the information that is
available from recent environmental work undertaken in the area, the identified site appears to be
an entirely suitable location for the development and operation of the project. No significant
environmental impacts are anticipated. 2B Green will therefore be submitting both the
environmental screening federally and the environmental registration documentation provincially
pursuant to the New Brunswick Clean Environment Act to the pertinent authorities in a matter of
weeks.
Following release from the federal and provincial environmental assessment processes, 2B Green
will seek the required approvals to develop and operate the proposed plant under the New
Brunswick Clean Environment Act and the New Brunswick Clean Air Act. At the same time 2B
Green will develop and detail an Environmental Management Plan that will include an
Environmental Protection Plan for both construction and operation, a management plan for the
handling of hazardous materials, a spill protection plan, a groundwater contamination testing and
management plan and a contingency plan.

3.05.02 Facility Description and Use

The project site is currently undeveloped. The proposed project includes the installation
of five E3 FullSpectrum biodiesel processor units for the production of fuel grade
biodiesel. These processors are automated systems that pump process fluids through a
series of vessels where they are heated, cooled, blended and reacted to form biodiesel.
In addition, two tank farms will be built outside the building to house all flammable and
combustible fluids used in the process.
The general arrangement of the facility inside and outside of the building is shown on
drawing 2310001-GA-002.
A number of flammable and combustible liquids will be used and stored by the facility.
The processor input fluids are:
Feedstock which can be vegetable oil or animal fats of various types. This material will
differ in combustion properties from lot to lot. The flash point of this material will be no
less than 160 °C and typically ranges from 205 °C to 260 °C. Feedstock is a class IIIB
Combustible Liquid per NFC and will be stored in tanks in the tank farm.
Methanol, CAS 67-56-1. The flashpoint of methanol is12 °C and its boiling point is 64.7
°C. Methanol is a Class IB Flammable Liquid per NFC and will be stored in tanks in the
tank farm.
Sodium Methylate, CAS 124-41-4 as a 30% solution of methanol. This material has
essentially the same flash point and boiling points of methanol and is a Class IB
Flammable Liquid per NFC. Sodium Methylate is also referred to as “catalyst” and will
be stored in a tank in the tank farm area.
The process output fluids are:
Biodiesel, CAS No. 67784-80-9. Biodiesel is a mixture of a variety of the methyl esters
of the fatty acid chains derived from the feed stock. It has a flash point of 130 °C and is a
Class IIIB Combustible Liquid per the NFC. Biodiesel will be stored in the tank farm
area.
Crude Glycerin, CAS 56-81-5. Crude glycerin has a flash point of 160 °C and is a Class
IIIB Combustible Liquid per the NFC. Glycerin will be stored in the tank farm area in a
dedicated tank.
3.05.03 Building Occupancy Classification

Each processor is a sealed system with no open tanks or vessels which contain flammable
or combustible liquids. The piping system for the facility is entirely closed.
The amount of Flammable Liquid present in the processors at any one time is 31 litres per
processor or 156 litres total. This is less than the permissible amount of Class I
Flammable Liquids per the NFC.
The amount of Combustible Liquid present in the processors at any one time is
approximately 50,000 litres each or 250,000 litres of Class IIIB Combustible Liquid.
This is less than the permissible amount of Class IIIB Combustible Liquid in a
sprinklered building per the NFC.
No other materials presenting a physical or health hazard are to be used within the
building. Therefore, the occupancy meets the requirements of F-1 Factory Industrial
Moderate-hazard per the NBC.
3.05.04 Building Construction

The building structure will consists of steel frames with metal cladding, Type II B
Construction. The interior of the building shell will be insulated, but otherwise
unfinished.
Interior offices, laboratory, equipment rooms and miscellaneous storage areas will be
constructed within the building.
A hazardous material storage area will be constructed within the building of concrete
blocks with a steel and concrete ceiling. It will have a total floor area of 395 m² and fire
rated walls and ceiling at 3 hours.
An electrical equipment room will be constructed within the building with walls and
ceiling fire rated at 2 hours.
The overall building dimensions are 61 m x 150.8 m with a total floor area of 9,200 m²,
of which 2B Green will occupy approximately one quarter. In the 2B Green area there
will be some offices occupying a mezzanine area of approximately 385 m² above the
ground floor equipment rooms.
Miscellaneous storage area exists within the building of 500 m².
Restrooms occupy 46 m².
The building will be fully sprinklered throughout.
Details of the building are shown on drawings 2310001-GA-010, 020 & 021.
3.05.05 Tank Farm Construction

The tank farms for the facility are located to the north and west of the building as shown
on drawing 2310001-GA-002.
Each tank farm area is constructed with concrete floor and containment walls. Two
separate containment areas are constructed for methanol and catalyst. The methanol
containment area is 416 m², the catalyst containment area is 242 m², the north tank farm
containment area is 908 m² and the west tank farm containment area is 1,640 m². The
volumes of the containment areas are sufficient to contain the volume of the largest tank
plus the 24-hour maximum rainfall.
3.05.06 Zoning
The site zoning is heavy industrial.
3.05.07 Occupant Calculations

3) Total Electricity - 1,671,914 kWh/yr
3.06.02 Nitrogen
Nitrogen gas is consumed by the tank farm vessels to provide blanket gas for safety and
to supply vapor dilution for methanol removal from biodiesel in the process.
Typical nitrogen consumption is about 113 LPM at 6.2 bar. Based on continuous
operation at 24 hours a day and 350 days a year, the yearly nitrogen consumption requires
57,053 m³/yr, roughly 421,336 kg/yr. If liquid nitrogen is purchased, the liquid nitrogen
volume requires 521,456 litres/year.
3.06.03 Compressed Air

Compressed air is supplied for instrumentation control across the plant. A separate air
compressor system is proposed for this 70 MMLPY biodiesel plant with the capacity of
0.4 LPM at 8 bar.
3.06.04 Utility Water

Utility water consumption is for housekeeping use only. Process consumption of utility
water is zero.
3.06.05 Potable Water

Potable water will be used for restrooms and drinking water. The estimated potable
water consumption is 3,300 litres per day.
3.06.06 Sanitary Sewer

The sanitary sewer will be connected to the restrooms, utility sinks and laboratory drains
only. The estimated sewer flow from all of these sources is 1,350 litres per day.
3.06.07 Boiler Fuel

The boiler is used to provide sufficient heat for the process to the FullSpectrum
processors through a circulating hot water system. At the tank farm hot water is also
used to provide heat to warm up the feedstock before it can be transferred to the
processor. The generated heat is also used for maintaining the tank storage temperature
of feedstock, biodiesel, and glycerin. Methanol and Catalyst do not require any heat to
keep the fluid liquid, even in cold weather.
Typical energy requirement for the boiler and tank farm warming of a single
FullSpectrum processor system is listed below.
1) Processor - 4,410 GJ/yr

2) Tank Farm - 1,167 GJ/yr
a. Feedstock Storage Tanks - 252 GJ/yr
b. Biodiesel Storage Tanks - 642 GJ/yr
c. Feedstock Holding Tanks - 44 GJ/yr
d. Biodiesel Holding Tanks - 119 GJ/yr
e. Glycerin Storage Tanks - 113 GJ/yr
3) Total Energy Needed - 6,747 GJ/yr
Either on-site produced biodiesel or purchased No. 2 diesel could be used for the boiler
fuel. Typical energy density of No.2 Diesel fuel and biodiesel fuel are around 33.2 and
31.9 MJ/kg, respectively. If the heat efficiency of boiler is 80%, the average boiler fuel
consumptions to each heating purpose for a single processor are:
No.2 Diesel Fuel Biodiesel Fuel

1) Processor 173,835 kg/yr 180,696 kg/yr

Yield 96% Minimum
Basic Plant Process Details:
Oil Pre-Treatment Oil is treated to reduce free fatty acids, dried to
remove water, and filtered to remove solids. Acid
esterification is used for FFA below 12%, and glycerol
esterification is used for FFA levels from 12 to 100%.

Transesterification The pre-treated oil is processed in a single stage batch
reactor, using high-shear mixing. The use of high
shear mixers allows for a faster initial reaction rate,
and quicker separation of glycerol. The process also
allows for re-treatment of off-spec product, and
recycling of glycerol for catalyst use reduction.
Catalyst A sodium methylate solution in methanol is used as
the transesterification reaction catalyst. Acid
esterification uses a sulfuric acid catalyst, and glycerol
esterification uses a metal oxide catalyst.
Methanol Recovery Methanol is recovered through flash evaporation.
Methanol is recovered separately from the acid
esterification, transesterification and glycerin recovery
stages..
Methanol Rectification Recovered methanol vapor is rectified in a packed
column to separate water, and provide purified
methanol back to the process.
Purification Purification options include processing of the
biodiesel through an ion-exchange column to remove
impurities, and distillation for biodiesel from low
quality feedstocks that might have difficulty meeting
ASTM specifications..
Post-Treatment A cold-filtering system provides a biodiesel that will
meet ASTM cold-soak specifications.
Thermal Driver The high temperatures required for the glycerol
esterification pre-treatment process, and the distillation
purification make hot oil the most cost effective
thermal source for the plant. Steam is an option for
the portions of the process that do not require higher
temperatures.
Energy Integration The energy from the plant hot streams have been
closely matched to cold streams for pre-heating. The
plant heat is tightly integrated to provide maximum
efficiency.
Vent Gas Collection All tank and process vents are collected and
combusted in the hot oil burner.
Safety Plant process areas are identified by hazard
classification, and all energy sources within that area
are either explosion-proof, or intrinsically safe.

E3 FullSpectrum™ Biodiesel Process
The E3 FullSpectrum™ biodiesel process is a batch process designed for maximum flexibility in
processing a wide variety of oils and fats into biodiesel. The process is developed around modular units
of 100,000 liters per day that can be paralleled to provide a variety of plant sizes and configurations.
The process can be customized with a variety of pre-treatment and purification options that allow
acceptance of low quality oils with the capability to process them into high quality biodiesel with
relatively high yields.
The key advantages to the process are:

 Ability to blend and process a wide variety of oils and fats.
 Batch processing for maximum flexibility
 Modular design for managed growth
 Water-free purification
 High level of energy integration & methanol recovery
 Post-treatment to fine tune properties and provide better cold-flow properties.
 Highly automated with low consumable and operating costs per unit produced
Options:
 Degumming, drying & filtering feedstock oils & fats
 Feedstock pretreatment from 0 to12% and / or 12% to 100% FFA
 Integrated FOG rendering (trap to brown grease)
 Advanced purification via distillation

16,000 MT / yr.; 9.2 MMGY
Number of Lines One to Six
Yield 96% Minimum
Basic Plant Process Details:
Oil Pre-Treatment Oil is treated to reduce free fatty acids, dried to remove water, and filtered to
remove solids. Acid esterification is used for FFA below 12%, and glycerol
esterification is used for FFA levels from 12 to 100%.
Transesterification The pre-treated oil is processed in a single stage batch reactor, using high-
shear mixing. The use of high shear mixers allows for a faster initial reaction
rate, and quicker separation of glycerol. The process also allows for re-
treatment of off-spec product, and recycling of glycerol for catalyst use
reduction.

Catalyst A sodium methylate solution in methanol is used as the transesterification

reaction catalyst. Acid esterification uses a sulfuric acid catalyst, and glycerol
esterification uses a metal oxide catalyst.
Methanol Recovery Methanol is recovered through flash evaporation. Methanol is recovered
separately from the acid esterification, transesterification and glycerin
recovery stages..
Methanol Rectification Recovered methanol vapor is rectified in a packed column to separate water,
and provide purified methanol back to the process.
Purification Purification options include processing of the biodiesel through an ion-
exchange column to remove impurities, and distillation for biodiesel from low
quality feedstocks that might have difficulty meeting ASTM specifications..
Post-Treatment A cold-filtering system provides a biodiesel that will meet ASTM cold-soak
specifications.
Thermal Driver The high temperatures required for the glycerol esterification pre-treatment
process, and the distillation purification make hot oil the most cost effective
thermal source for the plant. Steam is an option for the portions of the
process that do not require higher temperatures.
Energy Integration The energy from the plant hot streams have been closely matched to cold
streams for pre-heating. The plant heat is tightly integrated to provide
maximum efficiency.
Vent Gas Collection All tank and process vents are collected and combusted in the hot oil burner.
Safety Plant process areas are identified by hazard classification, and all energy
sources within that area are either explosion-proof, or intrinsically safe.
