Effect of methanol to oil molar mass ratio on yield of the three feedstocks has also been studied. Biodiesel; Methyl ester yield was decreased by esterification process using sulphuric acid anhydrous (H2SO4). Coconut oil; Jatropha methyl ester experienced a viscosity reduction of 24% (4.1–3.1 mm2/s) with the addition of Transesterification; 1% sulphuric acid. In this work palm kernel oil (PKOME), coconut oil (COME) and Jatropha oil Viscosity (JCME) were used as feedstocks for the production of biodiesel to investigate optimum parameters to obtain high yield. For each of the feedstock, the biodiesel yield increased with increase in NaOH concentration. The highest yield was obtained with 1% NaOH concentration for all. The effect of methanol in the range of 4:1–8:1 (molar ratio) was investigated, keeping other process parameters fixed. Optimum ratios of palm kernel oil and coconut oil biodiesels yielded 98% each at methanol: oil molar ratio of 8:1.

ABSTRACT: Thanks to its technological characteristics and availability on the international market, palm kernel oil is the (2016), Germany produced one third of the overall surfactants main feedstock used for the production of bio-based surfactant. However, the production of this biological feedstock is often statistics on the use of feedstock for surfactants manufacturing associated to deforestation practices in the countries of origin. surfactants industry panorama, we can assume that the order to guarantee deforestation-free palm kernel oil and preserve German industry can be considered a good proxy in relation to the sustainability characteristics of the feedstock throughout the the type of feedstock used for surfactants manufacturing. whole supply chain.

European Journal of Sustainable Development Research, 4(3), em0119. https://doi.org/10.29333/ejosdr/7804 ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Received: 10 Nov. 2019 Since almond seed oil can be used for biodiesel production, this study is aimed at investigating the effect of Accepted: 16 Jan. 2020 different blend ratios on the fuel properties of almond biodiesel. The biodiesel was characterized for the properties of flash point, cloud point, pour point, viscosity, saponification value, peroxide value, acid value, iodine value, density and specific gravity using the Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrophotometer (GCMS). When blended with petrol diesel at ratios of 20%, 30% and 50%, results showed that the properties of the biodiesel obtained at a blend of 20% had properties more similar to the ASTM standard. At that proportion of 20%, the properties of acid value, viscosity, cloud point, pour point and iodine value were found to be 0.95meq/kg, 8.80Cp, 60C, 10C and 0 41.62gI2/100g respectively, except the flash point which was 72 C at biodiesel blend of 50%. This is because increase in blending ratios was found to result in corresponding increase of the properties.

  • Various Sources for Production of Biodisel
    Various sources for production of biodiesel Pathak et al. VARIOUS SOURCES FOR PRODUCTION OF BIODISEL R. K. PATHAK1, DR. NITIN.E.PEREIRA2----- 1Associate Professor, Department of Biotechnology, Thadomal Shahani Engineering College, Bandra, Mumbai. 2 Asst. Prof, Department of Biotechnology, Thadomal Shahani Engineering College, Bandra, Mumbai. [email protected] ABSTRACT: Moreover, biodiesel is produced domestically from a variety of seed oils including soybeans, rapeseed, and corn. Biodiesel can be used in diesel engines (cars, trucks, busses, construction equipment), in jet engines, and, in heating and electricity generating systems. Use of biodiesel reduces nitrogen oxide emissions compared to fuel oil (a form of diesel fuel). This report estimates the net health benefits of using biodiesel. Biodiesel is environmentally safer than petro-diesel. It is nontoxic, produces less skin irritation than soap and water, it degrades four times as fast as petro-diesel, has a flash point significantly higher than that of petro-diesel, thus making it safer to store and handle. Key Words: Biodiesel, Transesterification, Enzymes, Catalysts. 1. Introduction be used to produce biodiesel. Extracting the oil leaves Biodiesel is the most promising alternative diesel fuel. It has behind dried green flakes that can be further reprocessed to received considerable attention in recent years due to its create ethanol, another fuel (Clayton, 2006), biodegradability, renewability, non-toxicity and less Babassu oil emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants with higher Babassu oil is extracted from the seeds of the babassu palm cetane number than normal diesel.

You don’t want to use someone’s recipe as the basis of your business. § Sometimes customers ask for custom soaps. You’ll have the knowledge to put together a recipe for baby’s skin or for a dirty mechanic. § You’ll know how to tweak a recipe or formula to make it better. Have you ever made a soap and thought, “Gosh, I wish I could make it just a bit more moisturizing or make the lather creamier?” This presentation will show you how to tweak a recipe for many different outcomes. § Fatty acid profiles of common soap making oils § Creating single oil soaps § Modifying a soap recipe § Starting from scratch (starting ratios) § Going palm-free § Tips for formulating § Learning the fatty acid profiles of soap making oils will help you better formulate.

But production these threats, gaining momentum at a regional has not always been so peaceful. Babassu: Brazil’s level. The long struggle of the women’s movement Warrior Women tells the story of the hard battle to established the “Free Babassu Law” in municipalities, maintain these communities’ way of life. In the face protecting the babassu forests and giving the landless of intimidation and threats from farmers for years, babassu nut gatherers free access. By uniting and Babassu women have negotiated their own terms; organising the women creative power, together they creating a grassroots movement and establishing achieve social change.

  • Biodiesel Production from Babassu Oil by Taguchi Technique and Fuel Characterization
    International Journal of Petroleum Science and Technology ISSN 0973-6328 Volume 11, Number 1 (2017), pp. 35-50 © Research India Publications http://www.ripublication.com Optimization of Babassu (Orbignya sp) biodiesel Production from babassu oil by Taguchi Technique and Fuel Characterization Pradeep T. Kale1 and S. S. Ragit2, 1 JJT University, Rajasthan; 2 JJT University, Thapar University, Patiala. Abstract This paper presents transesterification of Babassu oil (BBO) using methanol as alcohol and KOH as a catalyst; it showed a suitable alternative biodiesel with superior yield and lower toxicity. In the present study, signal-to-noise ratios (S/N ratio) with analysis of variance (ANOVA) were employed to optimize the variables and prediction of maximum yield. The various factors influencing the methanolysis of BBO were considered in present work. The temperature of reaction was observed to be most valuable in BBO conversion. In this work it is noted that for low cost purpose, the most efficient conditions for overall process are 50 °C process temperature, 1 wt% of catalyst concentration with 6:1 methanol/oil molar ratio for 1 h. With these optimum combinations up to 99.42% babassu oil methyl esters (BBOME) can be achieved. The major properties such as density, calorific value, viscosity, flash point, pour point and cloud point of the BBOME were observed as 876.2 kg/m3,40.012 Mj/kg ,4.001 cSt, 126 0C, 9 0C and 14 0C respectively. The BBOME could be used as a highly beneficial substitute for diesel fuel as its properties are within the acceptable limit and comparable to the biodiesel standard.
