“…For example, patents have recently been filed for a process creating protein concentrate from canola meal and for SSF processes for producing protein concentrates from renewable resources [1,2]. Brassica carinata is a domestic plant commonly grown in the Ethiopian highlands, Spain, California and Italy, that can be cultivated in a rotation with cash crops to enhance agricultural sustainability by diversifying crop rotations, which disrupts pest and weed cycles [3]. B. carinata has also been established as a drought and heat tolerant oilseed crop in Canada [4].…”

“…Međutim, korišćenje jestivih ulja u procesima dobijanja biodizela ograničavaju njihova primarna primena u ljudskoj ishrani i visoka cena. S obzirom da u ukupnoj ceni proizvodnje biodizela uljne sirovine imaju najveći udeo [3,4], poslednjih godina pažnju istraživača privlači ispitivanje mogućnosti primene novih i jeftinijih ulja kao što su ulja dobijena iz semena različitih korovskih biljaka: etiopijska slačica (Brassica carinata) [5], kravlja trava (Thlaspi arvense L.) [6], bela slačica (Sinapis alba) [7], tatula (Datura stramonium) [8], konopljica (Euphorbia lathyris L.), pileće drvo (Sapium sebiferum L.) i barbadoski orah (Jatropha curcas L.) [9].…”

2 Prirodno-matematički fakultet, Odsek Biologija i Ekologija, Univerzitet u Nišu, Niš, Srbija Ulje semena korovske biljke magareći trn (Onopordum acanthium L.) je korišćeno za sintezu metil estara masnih kiselina. Zbog većeg kiselinskog broja ulja, primenjen je dvostepeni proces koji uključuje esterifikaciju slobodnih masnih kiselina u ulju katalizovanu H2SO4 i metanolizu esterifikovanog ulja katalizovanu KOH. Kinetika reakcije metanolize esterifikovanog ulja je modelovana primenom nepovratne reakcije pseudo-prvog reda i pseudo-drugog reda. Izračunate su konstante brzine reakcije metanolize i energije aktivacije. Adekvatnost modela procenjivana je na osnovu vrednosti R 2 linearnih zavisnosti i srednjeg relativnog procentnog odstupanja eksperimentalnih i izračunatih vrednosti stepena konverzije triacilglicerola. Iako su oba kinetička modela pogodna za fitovanje eksperimentalnih podataka, veća tačnost je ostvarena primenom modela nepovratne reakcije pseudo-drugog reda. Karakteristike dobijenog biodizela su, generalno, u okviru vrednosti propisanih standardom kvaliteta bodizela EN14214. Zbog toga, seme O. acanthium L. može biti korišćeno kao jeftina sirovina za sintezu biodizela.Ključne reči: dvostepeni process; biodizel; kinetika; magareći trn; metanoliza; Onopordum acanthium L. UvodDemografska ekspanzija i razvoj industrije uslovljavaju kontinualno povećanje potreba za energijom, zbog čega su mnogobrojna istraživanja usmerena ka pronalaženju novih, alternativnih izvora energije: iskorišćenju energije biomase, sunca, vetra, talasa i plime i oseke. U sektoru transporta najčešću primenu imaju goriva dobijena iz biomase, među kojima značajno mesto zauzima biodizel. Biodizel predstavlja ekološki "čisto" gorivo, biorazgradivo i manje toksično u odnosu na dizel fosilnog porekla, koje se dobija iz obnovljivih sirovina i pogodno je za primenu u dizel motorima. Dobija se postupkom alkoholize biljnih ulja ili životinjskih masti sa nižim alifatičnim alkoholima. Najčešće korišćeni alkoholi u sintezi biodizela su metanol, a u poslednje vreme i etanol [1]. Za dobijanje biodizela trenutno se najčešće koriste jestiva biljna ulja, kao što su: ulje uljane repice, soje, suncokreta ili palme [2]. Međutim, korišćenje jestivih ulja u procesima dobijanja biodizela ograničavaju njihova primarna primena u ljudskoj ishrani i visoka cena. S obzirom da u ukupnoj ceni proizvodnje biodizela uljne sirovine imaju najveći udeo [3,4], poslednjih godina pažnju istraživača privlači ispitivanje mogućnosti primene novih i jeftinijih ulja kao što su ulja dobijena iz semena različitih korovskih biljaka:Magareći trn ili čkalj (Onopordum acanthium L.) je korovska biljka koja pripada familiji Asteraceae. Ova familija biljaka predstavlja najobimniju familiju dikotiledonih skrivenosemenica. Njihova primena je široka, kako u narodnoj medicini za lečenje povišenog krvnog pritiska [10], tako i u hemijskoj industriji za proizvodnju biogoriva pirolizom [11] ili likvefakcijom [12] biomase. U dosadašnjim istraživanjima ulje semena Onopordum acanthium L. nije ispit...

Waste vegetable fats are standardised by biobutanol in this article while replacing biodiesel. Viscosity, density, cold filter plugging point of fuel blend, oxidation stability, and flash point were measured to confirm that a fuel is so close to a fuel standard that it is possible to use it in engines without modification. Results of this analysis have allowed us to propose a new fuel product with the preliminary title BUTVO_60, which symbolises 60% biobutanol and 40% waste vegetable oil. Performance and emission parameters of this new fuel product were tested in a Zetor 8641 tractor with a Forterra supercharged diesel engine. The resulting 30% decrease in power was reached by measuring with an AW NEB 400 dynamometer at PTO, while maintaining 38% torque reserve. But by increasing fuel intake the engine maintained a stable performance. Nitrate emissions and BUTVO_60 particles were considerably lower at the non-road steady cycle (NRSC) test. In contrast to biodiesel, BUTVO_60 fuel also has kept the fuel system cleaner while minimizing carbon, impurities, sediments, and so on. The objective of this article is to allow the use of waste vegetable cooking oils as fuel while replacing biodiesel. The side effect of the proposed method is the ability of decentralised blending at places where local waste cooking oil emerges. No technology in either investment is needed in fuel processing or engine adaptation of fuel oils.
