“…Biodiesel fuels have saturated and unsaturated (for examples, polyunsaturated & monounsaturated) fatty acid ester. [19][20][21][22][23] The presence of high level unsaturated fatty acid esters in biodiesel makes it prone to autoxidation, 24 and the linoleic and linolenic acids are the main factors that reduce biodiesel oxidation stability. 25 When the concentration of linoleic and linolenic acids are increased, the oxidation stability is reduced.…”

7Biodiesel, which comprises fatty acid esters, is derived from different sources, such as vegetable 8 oils from palm, sunflower, soybean, canola, jatropha, and cottonseed, animal fats, and waste 9 cooking oil. Biodiesel is considered as an alternative fuel for diesel engine. However, biodiesel 10 has poor cold flow behavior (i.e., high cloud point & pour point) and oxidation stability 11 compared with petroleum diesel because of the presence of saturated and unsaturated fatty acid 12 esters. Consequently, the performance of biodiesel during cold weather is affected. When 13 biodiesel is oxidized, the subsequent dregs can adversely affect the performance of the fuel 14 system as well as clog the fuel filter, fuel lines, and injector. This phenomenon results in start-up 15 and operability problems. Cold flow behavior is usually assessed through the pour point (PP), 16 cloud point (CP), and cold filter plugging point (CFPP). Earlier studies on cold flow focused on 17 reducing the devastating effect of poor cold flow problems, such as lowering the PP, CP, and 18 CFPP of biodiesel. This present paper provides an overview of the cold flow behavior and 19 oxidation stability of biodiesel, as well as their effect on the engine operation system. The 20 improvements on the behavior of cold flow of biodiesel are also discussed.21

“…The use of a vegetable oil, such as jatropha oil (JO), that does not compete with food for the production of liquid biofuels presents a growing interest [1][2][3]. JO can be used for biodiesel production by transesterification [4].…”
