The conversion of used cooking oils into biodiesel

Each catalyst used to convert cooking oil into biodiesel results in different levels of complexity, cost, energy consumption, and feasibility. According to the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), biodiesel is defined as a “fuel comprised of mono-alkyl esters of long chain fatty acids derived from vegetable oils or animal fats”.

The optimum starting material for biodiesel production is vegetable oil from plant sources since it has a high conversion rate of pure triglycerides to fatty acid methyl ester and a quick reaction

Biodiesel Production from Waste Cooking Oil

Kolakoti et al., (2021) used waste chicken egg shells as a heterogeneous catalyst to produce biodiesel from cooking oil. Also, the biodiesel yield was compared using two optimisation techniques

The biodiesel feedstocks are classified into three main generations: Oil seeds, vegetable oils, palm oil, and food corps are the first generation, and the produced biodiesel from this generation can be used as a blend with petrol fuels or solely combusted in the engine [37].

There are several processes can be used to produce biodiesel from refined oil or waste cooking such as pyrolysis, micro emulsification, and transesterification. The main process, advantages and disadvantages was summaries and tabulated in Table 4. Transesterification is a popular and common method used in biodiesel production.

Biodiesel from Waste Cooking Oil | PPT, SlideShare

Biodiesel is an alternative fuel for diesel engine. It is a renewable energy. All used waste cooking oil are suitable for biodiesel. It produced from renewable plant or animal feedstock's which contain long chain fatty acid. Cooking oil have lower carbon content then diesel. Cooking oil have higher density then diesel, but lower energy content.

Waste Cooking Oil as Feedstock for Small-scale Biodiesel

Biodiesel from waste cooking oil, par ticularly palm oil, is obtained by transesterification process using two (2) different catalysts, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and potassium hydroxide

Raw or refined plant oil, or recycled greases that have not been processed into biodiesel, are not biodiesel and should not be used as a vehicle fuel. Fats and oils (triglycerides) are much more viscous than biodiesel, and low-level vegetable oil blends can cause long-term engine deposits, ring sticking, lube-oil gelling, and other maintenance
