Thereafter in the second reactor, this material is mixed with methanol to form methyl ester (bio diesel) and glycerin through trans-etherification reaction at 60 <sup>0</sup>C. This is then fed to layer separator for separation of bio-diesel and crude glycerin.</span></p>

One stream consists of methanol and the other stream consists of biodiesel. The other stream of crude glycerin from the layer separator is then distilled in distillation column 2 to remove moisture from the glycerin. The bottoms of both distillation columns are used as bio-fertilizer in the agriculture farms.</span></p>
