De Beers Biodiesel plan: Commercially unproven<\/strong><\/p>\n

26 Mar 2007, by: Jana Marais <\/p>\n

The business plan of biodiesel group De Beers Fuel, which has already sold 27 franchises and 40m shares to the public, rests on technology that hasn’t yet seen its economic viability being commercially proven, says this report.<\/p>\n

De Beers Fuel is currently running only a research plant at Mookgopong (Naboomspruit) and plans to complete the first four commercial biodiesel plants within the next six to eight weeks.<\/p>\n

The plants will initially use traditional raw materials, such as sunflower oil, which is imported. The business plan is based on the plants switching to algae oil within the next 18 months to two years.<\/p>\n
