biodiesel production from non-edible plant oils

121 Fig-3: Flow chart of Biodiesel production from non-edible oils 3. Results and Discussion In the present study the high FFA content of non-edible oils such as Jatropha curcus, Pongamia pinnata, Madhuca indica and Azhadirachta indica are effectively converted in

Downloadable (with restrictions)! Because of biodegradability and nontoxicity biodiesel has become more attractive as alternative fuel. Biodiesel is produced mainly from vegetable oils by transesterification of triacylglycerols. From economic and social reasons, edible oils should be replaced by lower-cost and reliable feedstocks for biodiesel production such as non-edible plant oils.

To increase the production of biodiesel from non-edible vegetable oils, it is one of the effective ways to solve the limited number of traditional raw materials and the high prices of these raw

ExxonMobil is investing in the production of biodiesel production from non-edible plant oils. Unlike traditional plant sources, the company is going into a new fermentation technology which uses non-traditional sources of sugar-rich plants.

Production of Biodiesel from Non Edible Oil and its Properties 1546 Biodiesel is an alternative fuel made from renewable biological sources such as vegetable oils both (edible and non edible oil) and animal fats (Antony Raja et al ., 2011). It can be defined

Chapter 2 Introduction to Biodiesel Production 2.1 Introduction Biodiesel [1–5] is a liquid biofuel obtained by chemical processes from vegetable oils or animal fats and an alcohol that can be used in diesel engines, alone or blended with diesel oil. ASTM International (originally known as the American Society for Testing and

Hence, the recent focus is to find oil bearing plants that produce non-edible oils as the feedstock for biodiesel production. In this paper, two plant species, soapnut (Sapindus mukorossi) and jatropha (jatropha curcas, L.) are discussed as newer sources of oil for biodiesel production.

Non-edible vegetable oils are not suitable for human food due to the presence of some toxic components in them. However, this doesn’t affect the biofuel production. The conversion rate of non-edible oil into biodiesel is comparable to the one of edible oils in terms of production and quality. In this process, also useful by-products are
