The present article addresses the generation of value-added jojobyl alcohols and biodiesel using the underutilized renewable natural resources. The butanolysis reaction of jojoba oil required for its transformation to jojobyl alcohols and fatty acid butyl esters was performed over mussel shells derived calcium oxide as a heterogeneous base catalyst. This study systematically investigated the influence...
The marine benthic diatom Navicula cincta was cultured in order to evaluate its capacity to produce both neutral lipid-triacylglycerols (TAG) for biodiesel, and exopolysaccharides (EPS), as valuable co-products, under the same environmental conditions. The species was cultured without applying stress conditions, except for the ones naturally created by the culture age. Peaks of neutral lipid accumulation...
Biorefinery approach is introduced for the biodiesel production by utilizing low cost raw material, such as rice bran oil (RBO). The valorization of RBO was carried out by homogeneous transesterification process using response surface methodology (RSM) based on a two-variable central composition design (CCD). The process variables, temperature and catalyst concentration were found to have significant...
