  • How much biodiesel can be produced from waste sunflower oil?
  • Thirumarimurugan et al. studied the transesterification reaction of waste sunflower oil with NaOH catalyst at 60 °C for 1¨C3 h. They found 80% biodiesel yield. Furthermore, Farooq et al. found 89% biodiesel yield for the same reaction by using heterogeneous catalysts derived from waste chicken bones by taking the reaction time as 4 h.
  • Can methanol be used to make biodiesel from waste sunflower oil?
  • Tomasevic and Siler-Morinkovic investigated the manufacture of biodiesel from waste sunflower oil using varied molar ratios of methanol to oil (4.5:1, 6:1, and 9:1) and in the presence of potassium hydroxide (KOH) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as catalysts.
  • Can waste cooking oil be used as a feedstock for biodiesel production?
  • Waste cooking oil can be used as a potential feedstock for biodiesel production. Disposal of waste cooking oil itself an environmental challenge due to its adverse environmental impact. Transesterification is the key process for synthesis of biodiesel production with low cost and under mild reaction condition.
  • Can sunflower waste cooking oil be produced over enhanced bifunctional catalyst?
  • In this study, the production of FAME from sunflower waste cooking oil over the enhanced bifunctional catalyst was studied, to investigate the relationships between selected conditions of time, temperature and catalyst loading in obtaining a maximum yield, and optimum reaction conditions for the transesterification.
  • Does waste sunflower cooking oil have a good viscosity?
  • Produced FAME from waste sunflower cooking oil, in this study was found to have a good viscosity which meets the ASTM standardisation, as compared to those found by Hossain and Boyce, [68 ]. For neat sunflower cooking oil and waste sunflower cooking oil the determined viscosity of their biodiesels were 5.8 mm 2 /s and 9.5 mm 2 /s respectively.
  • Is cooking oil a viable option for biodiesel production?
  • The results of the GC¨CMS spectrum analysis indicate that waste cooking oil exhibits a high potential for conversion into fatty acid methyl esters (FAME), making it a viable option for large-scale biodiesel production.
