Physicochemical Properties of Biodiesel Synthesised from Grape Seed, Philippine Tung, Kesambi, and Palm Oils

Abstract: The production of biodiesel using vegetable oil is an effective way to meet growing energy demands, which could potentially reduce the dependency on fossil fuels. The aim of this study was to evaluate grape seed (Vitis vinifera), Philippine tung (Reutealis trisperma), and kesambi (Schleichera oleosa) oils as potential feedstocks for biodiesel production to meet this demand. Firstly, biodiesels from these oils were produced and then their fatty acid methyl ester profiles and physicochemical properties were eval… Show more

“…The average chain length was determined by multiplying the mass fraction of the FA portion by the corresponding carbon number, and then adding the entire component [76]. Similarly, the mean degree of unsaturation was determined and summarised by multiplying the corresponding amount of carbon double bonds by the mass fraction of each FA component [77].…”

“…Several authors, such as Ali et al (2012), Yusop et al (2018), Kim et al (2019), Tziourtzioumis and Stamatelos (2019), Yoon et al (2019), and Ong et al (2020), who produced biodiesel from palm oil, obtained kinematic viscosity values between 4.56 and 4.74 mm 2 .s -1 .…”

“…A known fact that each type of feedstocks has a different composition of fatty acids, which defines the properties of biodiesel, and finally it affects the life-cycle of biodiesel (8,9). Physical and chemical properties of oils obtained from different feedstocks described in many reviews (8,10,11). Depending on the raw feedstock, biodiesel can be classified as one of four biofuel generations: (1) produced from edible oil, (2) produced from oils of nonedible plants, (3) produced from microalgae lipids, used cooking oil, or waste animal fats, and (4) produced from genetically modified microorganisms (12).…”
