High Free Fatty Acids
Biodiesel is an alternative fuel for diesel engines consisting of the alkyl monoesters of fatty acids from vegetable oils or animal fats. Most of the biodiesel that is currently made uses soybean oil, methanol, and an alkaline catalyst. The high value of soybean oil as a food product makes production of a cost–effective fuel very challenging. However, there are large amounts of low–cost oils an...
متن کاملSulfonated porous carbon catalyzed esterification of free fatty acids
The esterification of free fatty acids (FFA) with methanol is studied using Sulfonated Porous Carbon (SPC) as catalyst. In compare to the amorphous sugar catalyst and protonated Nafion, the proposed catalyst shows stability and high efficient performance in biodiesel production. The highest initial rate of oleic acid conversion is obtained at catalyst loading of 1 mmol H+ and mole ra...

متن کاملOmega-3 Fatty Acids and Obesity
Obesity rates continue rise to worldwide. In order to reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with obesity, as well as alleviate the impact on health care expenditures, the need for efficacious treatment strategies are in high demand. One promising approach is to include a diet high in “functional foods” into a weight loss regimen. Such foods provide an alternative to the limited number o...
متن کاملFatty Acids, Obesity and Insulin Resistance
OBJECTIVE Although elevated free fatty acid (FFA) levels in obesity have been considered to be of importance for insulin resistance, a recent meta-analysis suggested normal FFA levels in obese subjects. We investigated fasting circulating FFA and glycerol levels in a large cohort of non-obese and obese subjects. METHODS Subjects recruited for a study on obesity genetics were investigated in t...
