Biodiesel Production from Palm Oil using Heterogeneous Base Catalyst
In this study, the transesterification of palm oil with methanol for biodiesel production was studied by using CaO–ZnO as a heterogeneous base catalyst prepared by incipient-wetness impregnation (IWI) and co-precipitation (CP) methods. The reaction parameters considered were molar ratio of methanol to oil, amount of catalyst, reaction temperature, and reaction time. The optimum conditions—15:1 ...
متن کاملEnhanced removal of Free Fatty Acid from waste oil for Biodiesel production
Introduction The possibility of using vegetable oils as fuel has been documented in the beginning of diesel engines. Biodiesel produced from waste oil by trans-esterification process can be used as a substitute for diesel in internal combustion engines [1]. Biodiesel can be produced by the transesterifcation of vegetable oils [2] such as soyabean oil, rapeseed oil, sunflower oil etc. [3]. Trans...
متن کاملBiodiesel Production from High Free Fatty Acid Feed Stocks through Transesterification
Transesterification is one of the most popular methods to decrease the viscosity of vegetable oils to produce biodiesel. It is the reaction of vegetable oil/ fats with an alcohol to give fatty acid alkyl esters in the presence of a catalyst with glycerol as by product. A catalyst is used to increase the rate of reaction and yield. The reaction is very much affected by the free fatty acids conte...
متن کاملProduction of biodiesel and lactic acid from rapeseed oil using sodium silicate as catalyst.
Biodiesel and lactic acid from rapeseed oil was produced using sodium silicate as catalyst. The transesterification in the presence of the catalyst proceeded with a maximum yield of 99.6% under optimized conditions [3% (w/w) sodium silicate, methanol/oil molar ratio 9/1, reaction time 60 min, reaction temperature 60°C, and stirring rate 250 rpm]. After six consecutive transesterification reacti...
متن کاملImmobilizing Phosphotungstic Acid on Al2O3-ZnO Nano Mixed Oxides as Heterogeneous Catalyst for Biodiesel Production by Esterification of Free Fatty Acids
In this study, esterification reaction of different carboxylic acids (Acetic acid, Palmitic acid, Oleic acid) with ethanol was investigated by ZnO, Al2O3-ZnO mixed oxide and phosphotungestic acid (10 %wt) immobilized on the Al2O3-ZnO mixed oxide. The heterogeneous catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, FE-SEM and EDX techniques. Optimum yield was achieved by using 10% HPW/Al2O3-ZnO as the be...
