Acid and Base Catalyzed Transesterification of Animal Fats to Biodiesel
The present study has been focused on the acid and base transesterification of animal fats (dairy cow and beef) to produce biodiesel by varying process parameters such as catalyst amount, catalyst nature, reaction time and temperature. The maximum biodiesel yield after acid catalysis was 94.1 ± 2.43 and 98.4 ± 2.3 percent for dairy cow and beef t...
متن کاملHighly-efficient enzymatic conversion of crude algal oils into biodiesel.
Energy-intensive chemical conversion of crude algal oils into biodiesel is a major barrier for cost-effective algal biofuel production. To overcome this problem, we developed an enzyme-based platform for conversion of crude algal oils into fatty acid methyl esters. Crude algal oils were extracted from the oleaginous microalga Nannochloropsis oceanica IMET1 and converted by an immobilized lipase...
متن کاملConversion of waste cooking oils into environmentally friendly biodiesel
Background There has been an alarming increase in the dumping of Hong Kong’s municipal solid waste (MSW), predominantly food waste, in landfill (9,547 tonnes of MSW per day in 2013) [1]. One way of promoting an environmentally friendly method of minimising food waste is to turn the waste into energy by producing biodiesel from waste cooking oils. Biodiesel is a biodegradable fuel that can be ma...
متن کامل20 Fats and Oils – Plant BasedAmy
Fats and oils are water-insoluble compounds consisting of mainly triacylglycerols: three fatty acids esterified to a glycerol molecule. Products are generally called “fats” when they are solid at room temperature and “oils” when they are liquid at room temperature, although the terms are often used interchangeably. Edible fats and oils contribute to the flavor, texture, aroma, and mouthfeel of ...
