Kinetic Monte Carlo Study of Biodiesel Production through Transesterification of Brassica Carinata Oil
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
In the present study, the kinetics of biodiesel production through transesterification of Brassica carinata oil with methanol in the presence of Potassium Hydroxide is investigated by kinetic Monte Carlo simulation. The obtained results from simulation agree qualitatively with the existing experimental data. The kinetics data for each step of suggested mechanism are confirmed by simulation. By using the mechanism and kinetics data, the system is simulated at different methanol/oil feed ratios and a comparison between kinetic data is provided. The influences of temperature and percentage of catalyst on the amount of produced biodiesel at different times of reaction are obtained.

متن کاملBiodiesel Production from Chlorella protothecoides Oil by Microwave-Assisted Transesterification.
In this study, biodiesel production from microalgal oil by microwave-assisted transesterification was carried out to investigate its efficiency. Transesterification reactions were performed by using Chlorella protothecoides oil as feedstock, methanol, and potassium hydroxide as the catalyst. Methanol:oil ratio, reaction time and catalyst:oil ratio were investigated as process parameters affecte...
متن کاملBiodiesel production from neem oil using two step transesterification
Currently, most of the biodiesel is produced from the edible/refined type oil using methanol and alkaline catalyst. However, large amount of non-edible type oils and fats are available in our country. In this study, crude neem oil is used as alternative fuel for biodiesel production. The difficulty with alkaline transesterification of these oils have contained large amounts of free fatty acids ...
متن کاملEnzymatic transesterification for biodiesel production.
Biodiesel consists monoalkyl esters of long chain fatty acids. It is produced from vegetable oils or fats either by chemical transesterification or by lipase-catalyzed transesterification with methanol or ethanol. Biodiesel is a green fuel and can be used as a blend with diesel or alone. Either way, it does not require any modification in engine design or storage facilities. The enzymatic proce...
متن کاملProduction of Biodiesel by Enzymatic Transesterification: Review
Problem Statement: The research on the production of biodiesel has increased significantly in recent years because of the need for an alternative fuel which endows with biodegradability, low toxicity and renewability. Plant oils, animal fats, microalgal oils and waste products such as animal rendering, fish processing waste and cooking oils have been employed as feedstocks for biodiesel product...
متن کاملBiodiesel Production by Enzymatic Transesterification of Papaya Seed Oil and Rambutan Seed Oil
Biodiesel production from vegetable oil has gained attention as an alternative fuel to minimize the usage of fossil fuels and reduce greenhouse gases pollution. In Malaysia, oils from local fruit seeds of papaya and rambutan are potential feedstock for biodiesel production due to their high lipid contents and easily available. In the present study, papaya and rambutan seed oils were extracted v...
