Effect of storage time on moisture content of Reutealis trisperma seed and its effect on acid value of the isolated oil and produced biodiesel
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the time profile of moisture content for four different fractions of trisperma seed (PT-3,PT-7, PT-14, NPT-21) for four months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Techno-Economic Analysis for Small Scale Production of Rubber Seed Oil and Biodiesel in Palangkaraya, Indonesia
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the impact of capital investment, production capacity, price of co-product credit, employees' salary and price of raw materials on the production cost of rubber seed oil and biodiesel.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental study on the application of metal triflate salts for the trans- esterification of fatty esters (triolein, methyl oleate, methyl linoleate), fatty acid (oleic acid), as well as Jatropha curcas L. oil with methanol and higher alcohols was described.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of storage time on relevant product properties of rubber seeds, rubber seed oil and rubber seed oil ethyl esters
TL;DR: In this article, the acidity of isolated rubber seed oil and its acidity versus time was determined, and the effect of storage time on the moisture content of rubber seeds and the acid value of the oil within the seeds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental and modelling studies on continuous synthesis and refining of biodiesel in a dedicated bench scale unit using centrifugal contactor separator technology.
TL;DR: In this paper, a continuous synthesis and refining of biodiesel (FAME) using a laboratory scale bench scale unit was explored, which consists of three major parts: (i) a continuous centrifugal contactor separator (CCCS) to perform the reaction between sunflower oil and methanol; (ii) a washing unit for the crude FAME with water/acetic acid consisting of a mixer and a liquid liquid separator; and (iii) a FAME drying unit with air.
