Abstract Waste cooking oil (WCO) is a promising feedstock for producing biodiesel, which plays significant role in waste resource reusing and renewable energy production. It known that cost the main factor restricting large-scale production of biodiesel. Therefore, Life Cycle Cost (LCC) method was used to analyze economic feasibility biodiesel process from WCO. Our results show 1 ?t WCO 6291.56...

The depletion of conventional fuels and increase in global warming due to burning forces scientists develop sustainable alternative which are renewable suggested biodiesel as an immediate substitute for the diesel fuel. potential waste cooking oil is increasing recent years people avoiding usage (WCO). In this work, was produced from WCO used partial studied impact titanium oxide (TiO 2 ) nanop...

Various proportions of bentonite clay performing as co-catalysts were evaluated for the production biodiesel from waste cooking oil (WCO). The results showed that use a heterogeneous co-catalyst could significantly increase yield by approximately 50% control. improved properties produced including acid number, free fatty acids (FFA), relative density, kinematic viscosity and flash poi...

This study aims to prepare a supported catalyst based on zeolite Y doped with NaOMe (sodium methoxide) for the transesterification of waste cooking oil (WCO). The catalytic screening data showed that NaOMe/zeolite is prominent WCO prepared by solvent-free, ball-milling process. We initially tested 5–20% sodium methoxide loading onto and found 20% optimum reaction. reaction required comparativel...

The rising demand for non-renewable resources such as asphalt binder is a significant issue in the pavement industry. Flexible consumes amount of binder, which has become major terms environmental sustainability and from an economics viewpoint. Hence, researchers strive to find other alternatives solve these problems, enhance performance lifespan flexible pavement. Biomass-based bio-oil, waste ...

The kinetics of Cu(II) transport through a bulk liquid membrane with different membrane materials was investigated in this work. Three types of membrane materials were used: fresh cooking oil, waste cooking oil and kerosene, each of which was mixed with di-2-ethylhexylphosphoric acid (carrier) and tributylphosphate (modifier). Kinetic models derived from the kinetic laws of two consecutive irre...

Reduction of fossil fuels sources, increasing of pollution gases emission, and global warming effects increase the demand of renewable fuels. One of the main candidates of alternative fuels is biodiesel. Biodiesel limits greenhouse gas effects due to the closed CO2 cycle. Biodiesel has more biodegradability, lower combustion emissions such as CO, SOx, HC, PM and lower toxicity than petro diesel...

Abstract Fossil-based production of plastics represents a serious sustainability challenge. The use renewable and biogenic resources as feedstocks in the plastic industry is imminent. Thermochemical conversion enables molecular building blocks materials from widely available resources. Waste cooking oil (WCO) significant fraction these This work provides insights into thermochemical fatty acids...

This work explores the feasibility of using waste cooking oils (WCO) as eco-lubricants. Five WCO from different food facilities were studied. Three them fractionated into both lighter and heavier fractions by molecular distillation. A comprehensive chemical characterization (fatty acids distribution, polar compounds acidity) was carried out on all WCOs their fractions, which led to set relation...
