Physicochemical Properties of Refined Palm Cooking Oil and Used Palm Cooking Oil

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2019
Abstract In public restaurants, food frying is conducted in the same oil and recycled for the same usage for several days. However, during household frying, the cooking oil is changed after several usage. Obviously, the conditions of the cooking oil changed depend on frying styles and the types of material fried.

Potential of Used Cooking Oil as Dielectric Liquid for Oil-Immersed Power Transformers

IEEE transactions on dielectrics and electrical insulation, 2021
This paper presents the potential of using treated used cooking oil as a potential dielectric liquid for high-voltage power transformers. The acidity of used cooking oil is higher than the prescribed limit of natural ester for power transformers.

Hydrocracking of used cooking oil for biofuels production

Bioresource Technology, 2009
Hydrocracking of used cooking oil is studied as a potential process for biofuels production. In this work several parameters are considered for evaluating the effectiveness of this technology, including hydrocracking temperature, liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) and days on stream (DOS).

Diesel particulate emissions from used cooking oil biodiesel

Bioresource Technology, 2008
Two different biodiesel fuels, obtained from waste cooking oils with different previous uses, were tested in a DI diesel commercial engine either pure or in 30% and 70% v/v blends with a reference diesel fuel. Tests were performed under a set of engine operating conditions corresponding to typical road conditions. Although the engine efficiency was not

Purification of biodiesel from used cooking oils

Applied Energy, 2011
Abstract In Europe, methyl esters cannot be classified as biodiesel until the EN 14214 Standard specifications are fulfilled. The aim of this paper is to examine the efficiency of removing several impurities in biodiesel from used cooking oils by means of three basic operations under conditions that have been kept as close to commercial operating ...

Biofuel from Used Vegetable (Cooking) Oil

Qatar Foundation Annual Research Forum Proceedings, 2011
Abstract Everyday people use cooking oil at home and various commercial establishments in the hospitability industry. Particularly hotels and restaurants are generating 0.1 million tons /year of waste cooking oil in India and other countries such as US (0.3–0.4 million tons), EU (0.7–1 million tons), United Kingdom (0.2 million tons), and Canada (0.135

Use of rice husk in waste cooking oil pretreatment

Environmental Technology, 2017
Since industrial wastes are increasing, the development of studies to find ways for their use is urgent. Waste cooking oil is an important source for the production of biodiesel, one of the main biofuels in Brazil. However, during cooking, the oil undergoes conditions that change its properties and decrease its quality, such as its acidity value ...

Purification of used Cooking Oil using a Combination of Activated Carbon and Bentonite Adsorbents

JURNAL FARMASIMED (JFM)
The repeated use of cooking oil at high temperatures can significantly degrade its quality, as indicated by darkened color, unpleasant odor, elevated peroxide value (PV), and free fatty acid (FFA) levels. This deterioration can contribute to health risks

Production of Biodiesel from Cooking Oil Using CaO Catalyst

Advanced Materials Research, 2015
Transesterification method was carried out in biodiesel production from cooking oil (CO). Calcium oxide (CaO) was selected as the best catalyst. This study investigated the effects of percentage conversion of oil to biodiesel from methanol to oil molar ratio and catalyst amount.
