  • Can sunflower oil be converted into biodiesel?
  • The objective is to convert waste sunflower oil used for domestic purposes such as cooking oil into biodiesel using an alkali catalysed transesterification process. Sunflower is one of the leading oil seed crop, cultivated for the production of oil in the world.
  • What is biodiesel & sunflower?
  • Sunflower is one of the leading oil seed crop, cultivated for the production of oil in the world. Biodiesel is gaining more and more importance as an attractive fuel due to the depleting fossil fuel resources. Chemically biodiesel is monoalkyl esters of long chain fatty acids derived from renewable feed stock like vegetable oils and animal fats.
  • 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 mGal-LDH based geopolymer convert waste sunflower oil into biodiesel?
  • Sayed MR et al (2020) Synthesis of advanced MgAl-LDH based geopolymer as a potential catalyst in the conversion of waste sunflower oil into biodiesel: response surface studies. Fuel 282:118865
  • 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.
  • Can a heterogeneous catalyst produce biodiesel from transesterification of sunflower oil?
  • A novel efficient and cost-effective heterogeneous catalyst for the production of biodiesel from transesterification of sunflower oil was prepared through the impregnation of K 2 CO 3 upon the Talc material. The physicochemical features of the catalyst were studied through several characterization analyses.
