Characterization of Sunflower Oil Biodiesel as Alternative
The fuel properties of sunflower oil biodiesel were determined and discussed in the light of ASTM D6751 standards for biodiesel. The sunflower oil biodiesel was chemically characterized with
Sunflower is a plant widely used in applications from frying oil to energy production, such as biodiesel. Biodiesel is a fuel produced from renewable oils (vegetable, microbial or fish) or animal
Study on Biodiesel Production and Characterization for Used
The work gives ample evidence that oil from eateries in WCO could be used in producing high quality biodiesel in an easy, one-step transesterification reaction without the need for acid
Waste sunflower oil sourced from fried chicken and plantain was used for biodiesel production in this study. During the transesterification process, 161 ml of ethanol containing 96% (v/v) was added to 250 ml of waste sunflower oil using NaOH as the catalyst at different concentrations (2.0% to 4.0%) and temperatures (45°C, 60°C, 70°C and 85°C).
Waste Cooking Oil as Feedstock for Small-scale Biodiesel

India has scope for the cultivation of non-edible plants and hence, the production of biodiesel. In this paper, Thumba, Linseed, Wild Apricot, Algae,Cottonseed and Mahua are chosen to find out its
Production of Biodiesel from Waste Cooking Oil in Laboratory
vegetable oil, and it can be used in traditional diesel engines. Also, biodiesel can be blended with diesel fuel [2]. Biodiesel and conventional hydrocarbon-based diesel
4.5. Waste oil. Recycled oil is a primary feedstock used for the production of biodiesel in most small- to medium-scale biodiesel plants in Southern Africa; however, its insufficient availability presents a big limitation to a large-scale biodiesel production process.
Techno-economical and energy analysis of sunflower oil
Several studies have revealed flow process for biodiesel production from sunflower oil using wastes plant leaves catalyst. Transesterification reaction are one of the key contributors to energy in the production process of biodiesel. The FFA value of the Sunflower oil was measured by titration method, Equation (11). The measured FFA value range
processed in the world. Vegetal oils can be used for cooking or as raw material for fuel pro-duction. They are extracted from different oil rich plants such as: palm, canola, sunflower seeds, soybean, etc. In particular, palm oil is specific to tropical areas and is obtained from fresh palm fruits being an excellent oil used in food industry.
- How to make biodiesel from sunflower seeds?
- The oil extracted from seeds was applied for biodiesel production through transesterification using a 6:1 methanol to oil molar ratio with 0.7% catalyst at 50 °C for 65 min. The process resulted in a 96.2% biodiesel yield with a heating value of 41.6 MJ/kg, corresponding to 84 kg biodiesel per ton of sunflower crop and 108.8 L gasoline-equivalent.
- Can sunflower cooking oil be converted to biodiesel?
- Used sunflower cooking oil is converted to biodiesel by conventional transesterification process using monohydric alcohol with a catalyst of sodium hydroxide in various concentrations, to give mono-alkyl esters [ 19 ].
- Is sunflower oil a good raw material for biodiesel production?
- From a chemical reaction perspective, sunflower oil from natural sources is the leading primary raw material beneficial to biodiesel production, as the pure triglycerides conversion to fatty acid methyl ester is not only high but also with relatively short reaction time advantage [ 5 ].
- Can a green catalyst be used in biodiesel production from sunflower oil?
- The energy equivalent and efficiencies of CGL, KGL and NGL as a catalyst in biodiesel production from sunflower oil were investigated depend on average input-output data from the various research paper of natural sources to synthesis the green catalyst and its utilisation in biodiesel production.
- How many litres of biodiesel a day is produced in Malawi?
- In 2006, an eight million US dollar biodiesel-based production plant was launched in Malawi¡¯s capital city, Lilongwe [ 15 ]. The project was led by Dutch investors, and currently processes up to 250 tons of jatropha oil seeds per day to produce 5000 litres of biodiesel.
- Can sunflower oil be used for biofuel production?
- The residues of the sunflower crop are inexpensive and widely available substrates. These waste streams are typically burned or even left unused, creating serious environmental issues. In the present study, sunflower oil and its residues are used for biofuel production in the biorefinery framework.
