Through its subsidiary, Attis Innovations, Inc., Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. has announced the execution of a license agreement for proprietary biofuel process technology proven with initial testing to provide for significant improvements in conversion efficiency.
Biodiesel is one of the most abundant biofuels produced today, contributing more than 2 billion gallons in 2016 to the United States Renewable Fuel Standard. It is a renewable, clean-burning replacement for fossil fuels that is made from a diverse mix of virgin and waste feedstocks, including animal fats, vegetable oils, greases and other lipids. Existing biodiesel production methods require the use of multiple catalyst and purification steps that have innate inefficiencies that the Attis engineering team has targeted for reduction.
