BDL-275-PPS Step by Step Operation

Note:  Although you can dewater or precondition W.V.O in the reactor vessel.  To get a shorter process time and the highest conversion possible we recommend that you either build a separate dewatering/preconditioning tank or purchase one of our purpose built Pre Conditioning Tanks. 

Note:  Unit does not include WVO supply pump, you must either provide your own or purchase separately.
