Enzymatic transesterification for biodiesel production.
Biodiesel consists monoalkyl esters of long chain fatty acids. It is produced from vegetable oils or fats either by chemical transesterification or by lipase-catalyzed transesterification with methanol or ethanol. Biodiesel is a green fuel and can be used as a blend with diesel or alone. Either way, it does not require any modification in engine design or storage facilities. The enzymatic proce...
متن کاملAn overview of enzymatic production of biodiesel.
Biodiesel production has received considerable attention in the recent past as a biodegradable and nonpolluting fuel. The production of biodiesel by transesterification process employing alkali catalyst has been industrially accepted for its high conversion and reaction rates. Recently, enzymatic transesterification has attracted much attention for biodiesel production as it produces high purit...
متن کاملProduction of Biodiesel by Enzymatic Transesterification: Review
Problem Statement: The research on the production of biodiesel has increased significantly in recent years because of the need for an alternative fuel which endows with biodegradability, low toxicity and renewability. Plant oils, animal fats, microalgal oils and waste products such as animal rendering, fish processing waste and cooking oils have been employed as feedstocks for biodiesel product...
متن کاملOptimal integration for biodiesel production using bioethanol
In this paper we optimize the production of biodiesel using bioethanol from algae following four different transesterification paths: alkali, enzymatic and heterogeneous catalysts and supercritical conditions. The reactors are modelled using response surface methodology based on experimental results from the literature. These reactor models are implemented together with short-cut methods for th...
متن کاملOptimization of Experimental Conditions for Biodiesel Production
This study is based on optimizing the experimental conditions of biodiesel production by base-catalyzed transesterification using waste cooking oil (WCO). In this study, the key parameters varied were methanol (20, 25, 30, 35, and 40%), sodium hydroxide (0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 0.9 and 1.0g), reaction time (40, 60, 90, 100 and 120 minutes) and reaction temperature (50, 52, 55, 58, and 60 C). Maximum bio...
