Mathematical Modeling of Waste Fat Pre-Treatment for Biodiesel Production
Waste fat produced by tanneries during the processes in which raw hide is transformed into leather represents a very important raw material for biodiesel production. However, the acid number of this feedstock usually exceeds 2 mg KOH/g, which makes it unsuitable for direct processing into biodiesel via alkali-catalyzed transesterification. An effective and economically viable pre-treatment meth...
متن کاملBiodiesel Fuel from Animal Fat. Ancillary Studies onTransesterification of Beef Tallow
Transesterification of beef tallow was investigated. The solubility of ethanol in beef tallow was much higher than that of methanol. At 100 °C the solubility of methanol was 19% (w/w). The solubility of ethanol in beef tallow reached 100% (w/w) at about 68 °C. For the distribution of methanol between beef tallow methyl esters (BTME) and glycerol, the percentage of total methanol in the glycerol...
متن کاملAnimal Waste and Clean Water
I read with great interest Schmidt’s article on hog feces that was widely spread by Hurricane Floyd flooding in North Carolina (1). Should not all fecal matter, whether human, hog, poultry, or cattle, be held to the same standard of disposal? Why should municipalities be held to a higher level of waste purification for human fecal matter? Sheldon B. Cohen Psychiatrist (private practice) Atlanta...
متن کاملWaste oils as alternative fuel for diesel engine: A review
Increase in energy demand, stringent emission norms and depletion of oil resources have led the researchers to find alternative fuels for internal combustion engines. On the other hand, waste oils pose a very serious environment challenge because of their disposal problems all over the world. In this context, waste oils are currently receiving renewed interest. The properties of the oil derived...
