Development of bio-jet fuel has gained much attention in the few years due to carbon emission problem. Waste cooking oil (WCO) is an alternative raw material produce medium chain methyl ester which similar properties with bio jet fuel. This research aims investigate Response Surface Methodology for synthesis from waste using agitated ozone treatment. In this study, was produced ozonolysis metho...

Traditional biodiesel methods have disadvantages of excessive alcohol demand, short catalyst life, high manufacturing cost. Reactive distillation (RD) simplifies operations by combining reaction and separation. In literature, there was a few experimental study on continuous–flow in RD column with heterogeneous catalyst. So, it aimed to develop economical continuous process for producing fatty a...

Biodiesel is regarded as a low-carbon substitute for petroleum-based fuels. This research study aimed to investigate 10 L batch-scale biodiesel production system from waste cooking oil (WCO) powered energy by solar and conventional electricity. The unit’s design considers the mass balance of system’s constituent parts. methoxide mixing chamber volume was calculated 2.5 with an electric agitator...

Biodiesel, a non-toxic and biodegradable fuel, has recently become a major source of renewable alternative fuels. Utilization of lipase as a biocatalyst to produce biodiesel has advantages over common alkaline catalysts such as mild reaction conditions, easy product separation, and use of waste cooking oil as raw material. In this study, Pseudomonas cepacia lipase immobilized onto magnetic nano...

In this study, waste and discarded cooking oils (WCO) of palm, sunflower, rice bran groundnut are collected from local restaurants. The high viscous WCO was converted into oil biodiesel (WCOBD) by a single-stage transesterification process. During the process, important parameters which show significant change in yield studied using optimization tool response surface methodology (RSM). Results ...

Reusing reclaimed asphalt pavements (RAPs) provides economic, social, and environmental benefits. To improve the performance of these materials, rejuvenating agents such as waste cooking oil (WCO) have been implemented. The annual amounts RAP WCO available in Área Metropolitana de Bucaramanga (AMB) were calculated to be 32 thousand 22 tons per year, respectively. Subsequently, international sta...

Sci., 15: 312-317 Comparison of the optimum conditions of alkaline-catalyzed transesterification process for biodiesel production from pure sunflower cooking oil (PSCO) and waste sunflower cooking oil (WSCO) through transesteri...

Reusing waste cooking oil (WCO) as fuel in compression ignition (CI) engine offers a sustainable solution for energy scarcity and environmental protection. WCO n-pentanol ternary blends deliver are attractive prospects utilization bio-components recycled components to moderately substitute diesel fuel. The current study intends investigate the performance emission characteristics of single cyli...
