Non-Edible Plant Oils as New Sources for Biodiesel Production
Due to the concern on the availability of recoverable fossil fuel reserves and the environmental problems caused by the use those fossil fuels, considerable attention has been given to biodiesel production as an alternative to petrodiesel. However, as the biodiesel is produced from vegetable oils and animal fats, there are concerns that biodiesel feedstock may compete with food supply in the lo...
متن کاملProduction of Biodiesel from Different Edible Oils
Different vegetable oil based biodiesel (FAMES) were prepared by alkaline transesterification using refined oils as well as waste frying oil (WFO). Methanol and sodium hydroxide are used as catalyst under similar reaction conditions. To ensure the quality of biodiesel produced, a series of different ASTM Standard tests were carried out. In this context, various testwere done including viscosity...
متن کاملUtilization of Three Non-Edible Vegetable Oils for the Production of Biodiesel Catalysed by Enzyme
Enzymatic transesterification by using lipase as catalyst has become more attractive for the production of biodiesel due to easy separation of products such as glycerol and fatty acid esters. Comparative studies of enzyme catalyzed transesterification of three less attended non edible oils (jatropha, karanja and putranjiva) have been discussed. The maximum yield has been obtained at 3:1 molar r...
متن کاملTransesterification, Modeling and Simulation of Batch Kinetics of Non-Edible Vegetable Oils for Biodiesel Production
Biodiesel derived from renewable plant sources is monoalkyl esters of long chain fatty acids which fall in the carbon range C12-C22. It has similar properties as mineral diesel. Various processes exist to convert vegetable oils (mainly triglycerides) into biodiesel. Transesterification of vegetable oils using alcohol in a catalytic environment is most commonly used method for producing biodiese...
متن کاملImpact of various biodiesel fuels obtained from edible and non-edible oils on engine exhaust gas and noise emissions
Increasing demand for fossil fuels due to the luxurious lifestyle, significant growth of population, transportation and the basic industry sectors has caused serious environmental problems. Moreover, a rapid decline in the fossil fuels has led scientists and researchers to look for new alternatives. In this regard, alternative fuels such as biofuels are becoming important increasingly due to en...
