“…When its flash point and fire point temperatures are higher than the ambient temperature, it indicates that it is safe to transport, store, and handle fuel. They have nothing to do with engine performance, and it is only a measurement of a fuel's flammability that indicates its propensity for fire and explosion [20,21]. However, autoignition temperature should not be confused with flashpoint and fire point temperature.…”

This research focuses on purifying the biodiesel provided by the Davao City Biodiesel Plant using a modified fractional distillation. The researchers considered six variables to determine raw and purified biodiesel properties and characteristics: density, kinematic viscosity, flashpoint, fire point, soap content (NaOH and KOH), and water content. The experimentation results were verified using ASTM D6751 – Standards Specification for Biodiesel Fuel (B100). For the purified biodiesel, an increase in flashpoint and fire point temperatures has been observed using the modified process, thus exceeding the standard limit. Although it affects biodiesel quality, an increase in flashpoints and fire points may be better for fuel handling, transportation, and storage safety reasons. These barely influence the overall performance of biodiesel. In conclusion, the modified process improved the quality of the raw biodiesel from 50% to 83% of the variables' set standard with the optimum conditions of 3.5 inHg at 2 hours and 2.5 inHg at 1 hour.

Advances in Metal Oxide‐based Nanocatalysts for Biodiesel Production: A Review

et al. 2023

The demand for renewable fuels has risen as a result of increasing human population, urbanization, industrialization, and transport systems. Biodiesel production using metal oxide-based heterogeneous catalysts is an efficient, sustainable, and environmentally friendly approach. Because of their recovery, reusability, and consistency, heterogeneous catalysts may be preferable to homogeneous catalysts. Since the last few decades, the metal oxides of alkali earth and transition metals and their composite materials have been used as nanocatalysts in the production of biodiesel fuel. Utilization of inorganic metal oxide nanoparticles (MONPs) and their composite materials in producing biodiesel has gained increased attention because of their advanced physical and chemical characteristics. In this review, the applicability of metal oxides and their nanocomposite-based catalysts in biodiesel production, transesterification reactions with nanocatalytic systems, and the important parameters that affect these reactions are discussed.

“…It began by dissolving the N, N-dimethylformamide (DNF) in the GNs (DMF). For 45 min, the nanoparticles were dispersed in a new way to avoid accumulation, as suggested in previous studies [22][23][24][25], with a DMF concentration of 3% by weight. A SCILOGEX D500 homogenizer was used to homogenize the mixture without agglomeration.…”

Nanoparticles dispersed in lubricants are being studied for their ability to reduce friction and wear. This paper examines SAE 5W-30 oil enhanced with dispersed graphene nanoplates for tribological and rheological properties. Graphene nanoplate (GNs) concentration effects on the rheological and tribological properties of 5W-30 base oil (0.03, 0.06, 0.09, 0.12, and 0.15 wt percent) were tested. Under various loads, a four-ball testing model was used to conduct a tribological analysis (200, 400, 600, and 800 N). Kinematic viscosity is calculated, and base oil and nanofluid-added 5W30 lubricant are compared for thermal conductivity and flashpoint. Wear scar and coefficient of friction improved by 15% and 33% with nano-additives. When related to the base oil, the flashpoint, thermal conductivity, kinematic viscosity, and pour point all increased, by 25.4%, 77.4%, 29.9%, and 35.4%, respectively. The addition of GNs improved the properties of 5W30 engine oil.
