Biodiesel production from non-edible Mahogany seed oil by dual step process and study of its oxidation stability

Abstract: Biodiesel derived from non edible sources is a potential eco-friendly substitute to petroleum fuel. Acid-catalysed esterification was applied to reduce free fatty acid (FFA) content of oil to zero followed by base-catalyzed transesterification to convert esterified product to its mono-esters and glycerol. The major factors affecting the conversion efficiency of these two processes such as amounts of solvent and catalyst, reaction temperature, and reaction time were optimized. The physical properties and heatin… Show more

“…The transesterification reaction can occur using an acid/base catalyst in the presence of methanol/ethanol if the triglyceride feedstock contains less than 2% of free fatty acid (FFA). 4 , 5 Due to food scarcity, the use of edible oils as feedstocks for biodiesel production can be a concerning matter. As a consequence, researchers are looking forward to non-edible oils like rubber seed, Jatropha seed, and Karanja seed oil for their use as potential feedstocks for biodiesel production.…”

“…Single-step transesterification and two-step esterification and transesterification are the popular traditional chemical reaction processes for biodiesel production. The transesterification reaction can occur using an acid/base catalyst in the presence of methanol/ethanol if the triglyceride feedstock contains less than 2% of free fatty acid (FFA). , Due to food scarcity, the use of edible oils as feedstocks for biodiesel production can be a concerning matter. As a consequence, researchers are looking forward to non-edible oils like rubber seed, Jatropha seed, and Karanja seed oil for their use as potential feedstocks for biodiesel production. , However, owing to the scarcity of non-edible oils and the consequential high cost of biodiesel produced from them, waste cooking oil (WCO) has become a reliable source for biodiesel production .…”

“…"During the 20th century, the use of non-edible oil seeds products declined substantially due to availability of relatively and cheap oil derived from fossil reserves. Hence, looking into alternative oil source from various seeds remains a subject of active investigation" [6]. "Mahogany (Khaya senegalensis) seed is valued among the best in production of non-fossil oil used for various applications.…”

“…The power generation efficiency from the biomass fuel is the most important factor for achieving the potential utilization of biomass (Imran et al, 2012;Rana et al, 2015). Advanced conversion technologies such as pyrolysis (Ganesh and Banerjee, 2001) and gasification (Asadullah, 2014) can offer methods of power generation with higher efficiencies than combustion based steam cycles.…”
