Product Spotlight: Metal-X & Metal-Z Adsorbents for Renewable Diesel

Author: Bruce Patsey

Oil-Dri's Metal series—Metal-X and Metal-Z—enhances the pretreatment process of vegetable oils and animal fats used in the renewable diesel market. These advanced adsorbents are specifically engineered to target and remove trace elements and phosphorus-containing compounds that can hinder downstream processes and damage equipment.

Key Benefits of Metal-X & Metal-Z:

Trace Metal and Phosphorus Removal: Metal-X and Metal-Z exhibit a strong affinity for a wide range of organic and inorganic phosphorus, effectively removing these contaminants from feedstocks.

Versatile Feedstock Compatibility: These adsorbents perform effectively across various vegetable oil and animal fat-derived feedstock blends, making them suitable for diverse renewable diesel operations.

Exceptional Filtration: Designed with optimal particle sizing, Metal-X and Metal-Z offer superior filtration, prolonging the life of filter presses and improving overall operational efficiency.

Incorporating Metal-X or Metal-Z into the pretreatment process improves feedstock quality, protects equipment, and ensures the efficiency of renewable diesel production.
