Abstract:The utilization of non-edible/waste oils and microwave heating system are expected to reduce the cost of biodiesel and contribute to reducing global food demand. In this study, the continuous biodiesel production from waste cooking oil (WCO) by the use of a microwave flow system has been investigated. The utilization of WCO as a biodiesel feedstock is expected to minimize the industrial biodiesel production. A household microwave was modified as a biodiesel reactor for continuous transesterification. The effec… Show more
