Biodiesel from waste cooking oil in Mexico City
Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 2015The aim of this article is to evaluate the potential use of biodiesel produced from waste cooking oil in Mexico City. The study is divided in two main areas: the analysis of a waste cooking oil collection pilot project conducted in food markets of a Mexico City region; and the exhaust emissions performance of biodiesel blends measured in buses of the ...

Use of rice husk in waste cooking oil pretreatment
Environmental Technology, 2017Since 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 ...

Utilization of waste cooking oil as an alternative fuel for Turkey
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2016This study is based on three essential considerations concerning biodiesel obtained from waste cooking oil: diesel engine emissions of biodiesel produced from waste cooking oil, its potential in Turkey, and policies of the Turkish government about environmentally friendly alternative fuels. Emission tests have been realized with 35.8 kW, four-cylinder,

Biodiesel from Plant Oil and Waste Cooking Oil
2019Vegetable oil derived from oilseed plantations or crops is the most commonly used feedstock for the production of biodiesel. These oils, primarily including those obtained from rapeseed, sunflower, and palm, are transesterified with methanol in the presence of an alkaline catalyst to reduce their viscosity so that their fuel properties are comparable ...

Biodiesel Production From Waste Cooking Oils
Fuel, 2008Abstract Alkali-catalyzed transesterification of waste cooking oils, collected within Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, with methanol was carried out in a laboratory scale reactor. The effects of methanol/waste cooking oils ratio, potassium hydroxide concentration and temperature on the biodiesel conversion were investigated.

Enzymatic Conversion of Waste Cooking Oils Into Alternative Fuel—Biodiesel
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2006Production of biodiesel from pure oils through chemical conversion may not be applicable to waste oils/fats. Therefore, enzymatic conversion using immobilized lipase based on Rhizopus orzyae is considered in this article. This article studies this technological process, focusing on optimization of several process parameters, including the molar ratio ...

Waste Cooking Oil to Biodiesel - A Review
The phrase “Biodiesel from Waste Cooking Oil” refers to a broad wide range of unconventional fuels generated from different kinds of oils and fats. The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) defines biodiesel as “monoalkyl esters of long chain fatty acids,” which can be produced by the transesterification of vegetable oil, animal fat, or ...Shilpa Pande, Shekhar Gahane
