John,

It was mentioned that GRNO is looking into investing in a quality pump station. Tanker trucks have onboard pumps but I don't believe they are rated more than 600 gph and normally fuel is gravity fed into service station storage tanks. Any new facility would incorporate these necessary logistical facilities as well as adequate storage and laboratory accomodations.

At least that is how I've seen it done in the Army aviation refueling operations where most vehicles were lucky to to be equipped with 250-350 gph pumps.

But I felt reassured that even with the peripheral bottlenecks from ancillary equipment that the processor was perfectly capable of non-stop operations in and of itself.

Regards,

Ron

John, those big white tanks in the pictures of the GRNO plant site hold diesel awaiting shipment. The original Model 200 was designed to produce 200 GPH of diesel and so the original permit application was for 275 gallons an hour of feedstock. 200 GPH of diesel is the maximum production rate expected until the amended permit is granted.

The big black tanks are for feedstock and for the heating oil that was not distillate.

What I was assuming when I made the statement was that the plant would use the big white tanks to hold the diesel until trucks would arrive to remove it. I didn't think trucks would sit and wait at the site while diesel was pumped directly from the plant into the trucks.

The above flow numbers I guarantee. The storage numbers I do not. Of course I or somebody else could call and ask if we really needed to know.
