Choosing steels for the biofuels industry
20 Nov 2012
Stainless steel is a material of choice for many applications in bioethanol, biodiesel and biogas processes.
Stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance in the biofuels industry’s process conditions, coupled with good strength, ductility, toughness and ease of fabrication. It is 100% recyclable and supports the biofuels industry’s long-term sustainability concepts and goals.
The Nickel Institute has recently published the report ‘Stainless Steels: Cost-Efficient Materials for the Global Biofuels Industry’ which includes information on the economic benefits to be gained from selecting the appropriate grade of stainless steel.
