Synthesis, spectroscopic and chromatographic studies of sunflower oil biodiesel using optimized base catalyzed methanolysis

Abstract: Methyl esters from vegetable oils have attracted a great deal of interest as substitute for petrodiesel to reduce dependence on imported petroleum and provide an alternate and sustainable source for fuel with more benign environmental properties. In the present study biodiesel was prepared from sunflower seed oil by transesterification by alkali-catalyzed methanolysis. The fuel properties of sunflower oil biodiesel were determined and discussed in the light of ASTM D6751 standards for biodiesel. The sunflower … Show more

“…It could be said that, in most cases, the biodiesel complied with the standard, showing good results in some parameters such as flash point, which was higher than in the case of similar biodiesel samples found in the literature (Saydut et al, ). In addition, other values such as ester content, density, and viscosity were similar to those found by other authors (Aransiola et al, ; Focke et al, ; Naureen et al, ). However, as is common in biodiesel from vegetable oils, the oxidative stability is low, not complying with the standard.…”

“…26 Entre os possíveis coprodutos agroindustriais com potencial para atender ao mercado nascente de etanol de segunda geração está a torta de girassol, subproduto da extração do óleo das sementes do Helianthus annuus L. O girassol é uma cultura agrícola que atende ao mercado de grãos e óleo comestíveis e à indústria do biodiesel. 27,28 A torta ou farelo de girassol possui alto teor de celulose e hemicelulose, com potencial, portanto, para a produção de etanol de segunda geração.…”

“…Estes resultados são importantes, pois o menor teor deácidos graxos insaturados obtidos para a amostra SYN 3950 promove características interessantes ao biodiesel obtido a partir doóleo desta variedade, tais como, maior estabilidade oxidativa e menoríndice de iodo. Os resultados de CG-MS estão de acordo com a literatura [32], porque osésteres metílicos apresentaram tempos de retenção e identidade química semelhantes. Oíndice de iodo mede o grau de insaturação presente nosésteres em uma amostra de biodiesel.…”
