  • Can sunflower oil be used for biodiesel production?
  • Santana et al. used sunflower oil for biodiesel production in a micro-channel reactor. The authors reported that biodiesel production in the microreactor was 95.8%, while in a batch reactor it was 94.06%. Biodiesel yields were further improved by modeling and simulation tools.
  • Is Uco a feedstock for biodiesel?
  • Worldwide, UCO is a relatively minor feedstock for biodiesel (FAME/HVO). In 2019, UCOME made up 5.12 Mt of the 45.69 Mt biodiesel produced worldwide (ISTA Mielke GmbH, 2020). The most important feedstocks are various types of virgin oil: palm oil (38.5%, 2019), soy oil (25%, 2019) and rapeseed (14%, 2019, of which 85% EU).
  • Should used cooking oils be used for biodiesel production?
  • For both economic and environmental reasons, implementing used cooking oils (UCO) for biodiesel production has gained a significant amount of consideration within the world of fuel production. It has been determined that the price of raw materials can be held responsible for approximately 75% of the overall biodiesel production cost.
  • What is the production process of biofuel from UCO?
  • The production process of biofuel from UCO is similar to that of biofuel from virgin (plant) oil, with some simple additional steps. In this study, we will consider UCO (and other animal fats) from the moment they acquire the status of used product until their application in the EU or their potential application elsewhere.
  • What is used cooking oil (UCO)?
  • Used cooking oil, known as UCO, is waste vegetable oil from food manufacturers, restaurants, catering facilities, and kitchens in schools, hospitals, or households. UCO can be used to produce several types of renewable and sustainable fuel, via different pathways.
  • 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.
