Biodiesel is a promising sustainable alternative to non-renewable petrodiesel. In this work, oils extracted from … microalgae are used for biodiesel production. To simplify the process, the extraction of the oils and their reaction are made to … (35-50 °C), reaction time (2-6 h), and methanol:oil (M:O) molar ratio (8:1-16:1) on biodiesel yield were investigated …

Transesterification is the most common method of producing biodiesel from vegetable oils. A comparative study on the … catalyst loading in the transesterification process. The highest biodiesel yields from the optimum setting for refined canola … biodiesel yields for each of refined canola, unrefined canola and unrefined camelina were determined. Results showed that the …

4.85%, two step transesterification process was adopted for biodiesel production. In the first step, 6:1 ethanol to oil … the corresponding maximum yield was 95.49%. The biodiesel produced with optimum values of transesterification process …Increased rate of use of fossil fuels have greatly polluted the earth through harmful by-products. Biodiesel is an …

Results show that blending SSO with palm oil before transesterification will … being blended up to 20% with petroleum fuels. Recently, the industrialisation of biodiesel is a major problem because of its …
