LEC and M Energy to restart Australian biodiesel plant

Lignol Energy Corporation (LEC) and M Energy Co., Ltd. (M Energy) have signed a formal Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) outlining their collaboration on restarting LEC's 140 million litre per year biodiesel plant in Darwin, Australia.

The project will incorporate M Energy's proprietary pre-treatment technology and if successful, will provide enough capital for the Darwin project and an opportunity for M Energy to become an equity partner in the project.

The two companies have teamed up over recent months to create a technology and commercial feasibility study on the integration of M Energy's patented pre-treatment solution with the company's Lurgi designed, biodiesel plant located in Darwin, Australia.

Feedstock samples for the Darwin plant have been tested and verified to work with the M Energy pre-treatment technology.

Various Lurgi upgrades will be made to ensure operability as well as routine replacement and refurbishment of certain existing components, followed by implementation of M Energy's proprietary pre-treatment package, allowing the plant to process a number of sustainably certified high free fatty acid waste feedstocks.
