Life Cycle Analysis of Rapeseed Oil Butyl Esters Produced from Waste and Pure Rapeseed Oil

Biodiesel Production From Rapeseed Oil With Waste Frying Oils

Biodiesel or fatty acids alkyl esters (FAAE) of long chain are an alternative fuel produced by a transesterification process. The potential production of biodiesel from rapeseed oil in Chile is associated to the solution of economic, environmental and social problems. Experiences from other countries have demonstrated that biodiesel prices are higher than diesel, due to the high costs of the ra...

No . 3458 Nutritional value of rapeseed oil

Ruminal lipid balance and intestinal digestion by dairy cows fed calcium salts of rapeseed oil fatty acids or rapeseed oil.

The effects of supplemental calcium salts of rapeseed oil fatty acids (FA) and rapeseed oil on ruminal metabolism and apparent digestibility of lipids in the small intestine were studied using three multiparous Holstein x Friesian cows in a 3 x 3 Latin square design. Cows fitted with ruminal, duodenal, and ileal cannulas were fed restricted amounts of a control diet (C) containing 65% corn sila...

Ultrastructure of liver from piglets fed Tower rapeseed oil.

Effect of Tower rapeseed oil (RO) containing lower (0.4%) erucic acid on the piglet liver was studied by electron microscopy. The animals were placed in two groups of four and were fed the diets for eight weeks. Animals in the treated group were given a basal diet comprising corn-soybean plus Tower RO at a 10% concentration; animals that were given the basal diet with no added oil served as the...

Ethanolysis of rapeseed oil − distribution of ethyl esters, glycerides and glycerol in ester and glycerol phase

The distribution of ethyl esters, triglycerides, diglycerides, monoglycerides and glycerol between the ester and glycerol phase was investigated after the ethanolysis of rapeseed oil at various reaction conditions. The determination of these substances in the ester and glycerol phases was carried out by the GC method. The amount of ethyl esters in the glycerol phase was unexpectedly high and th...
