Biodiesel is a renewable and substitute fuel to diesel engines. The main limit for adoption of biodiesel on industrial scale as an alternative fuel is the high cost of its synthesis process using raw methanol during transesterification reaction. Using bio-refinery approach and inexpensive high-quality oil feedstock is an effective means to produce low-cost biodiesel. In this study Saussurea heteromalla...
In the present research work, non edible oil source milk thistle (Silybum marianum (L.) Gaert) plant was investigated for biodiesel production. The extracted crude oil was 26.14% of the total seed dry weight. The free fatty acid content of oil was reduced from 0.56 mg KOH/g to 0.06 mg KOH/g by esterification before the synthesis of biodiesel. The highest conversion percentage of biodiesel was achieved...
