The Pongamia and waste cooking oils are the main non-edible oils for biodiesel production in India. The aim of the present work is to evaluate the fuel properties and investigate the impact on engine performance using composite oil of Pongamia and waste cooking biodiesel of various proportions of 60:40, 70:30, 80:20 and their ternary blend with diesel of B10, B20, B30, B40. The result of the test...
Biodiesel was synthesized by transesterification of waste frying oil. The 1H-NMR, Gas chromatography, and FT-IR analyses of the final product confirmed that in the chosen experimental conditions, the transesterification reaction was complete and the biodiesel does not contain any traces of glycerol. The transesterification of the low cost raw materials (waste frying oil and crude purified methanol)...
The activity behavior of Novozym 435 treated with organic solvents was investigated, and the influence of several crucial parameters, including Novozym 435 dosage, oil to methanol molar ratio, reaction time and type of monohydric alcohol, on biodiesel yield was also addressed using tert-butanol as co-solvent. The results showed that the functional group as well as log P of organic solvents was an...
8 strains producing lipase were isolated from soil with rich oil. Among them strain BD3 producing lipase was more powerful. Strain BD3 was identified as Pseudomonas sp according to its morphology, physiological, biochemical properties. We utilized PVA(polyvinyl alcohol) and Boric Acid as the vector of immobilized cells of Strain BD3, and have studied transesterification at the same time. We found...
