Thermal behavior of diesel/biodiesel blends of biodiesel obtained from buriti oil=Comportamento térmico de blendas de diesel/biodiesel de biodiesel obtido a partir do óleo de buriti [PDF]

Acta Scientiarum: Technology, 2012
Biodiesel has been obtained from methanolysis of buriti oil. This biodiesel was added in fossil diesel in order to obtain diesel/biodiesel blends. Thermal analysis of blends were carried on 30-600oC range at rate of 10oC min.-1.

Lipase‐Mediated Synthesis of Biodiesel Using Blended Alcohol in a Packed‐Bed Reactor System

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of lipases in biodiesel production has gained attention as a more sustainable and efficient alternative to chemical catalysts, attributed to their operational reusability and minimal environmental impact. As an innovative approach in this study, a blended alcohol composed of 20 mol% methanol and 80 mol% 1‐butanol was employed as the ...

Ionic Liquid‐Enhanced Solvent‐Based Fractional Crystallization for Separation of Fatty Acids From Tallow fat—A Modelling Approach

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In industrial practice, fats and oils that contain triglycerides when subjected to high‐temperature and high‐pressure aqueous hydrolysis, yield sweet water as the bottom product and fatty acid mixtures as the top product in a separating column.

Ultrafast Biodiesel Synthesis via K2CO3‐Supported Mg‐Al Hydrotalcite Catalyst With Tailored Basicity and Mesoporous Structure

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the increasing global energy demand and the growing prominence of environmental issues, biodiesel has garnered significant attention as a renewable, low‐emission green energy source. Conventional hydrotalcite‐based catalysts often suffer from insufficient basicity and limited accessibility of active sites, leading to relatively long ...
