Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of neem methyl ester from transesterification process and fuel characterization as a diesel substitute
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of process parameters such as molar ratio, preheating temperature, catalyst concentration and reaction time was studied to standardize the transesterification process for estimating the highest recovery of ester with lowest possible viscosity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of safflower oil transesterification using the Taguchi approach
TL;DR: In this article, the main aim of the experimental work is to optimize the process parameters, namely the methanol-to-oil molar ratio, catalyst concentration, reaction time and reaction temperature for biodiesel production.
Journal Article
Performance and emission evaluation of a diesel engine fueled with methyl ester of neem oil and filtered neem oil
TL;DR: In this paper, a 4-stroke single cylinder water cooled diesel engine was tested with NOME and showed that NOME can be used as a substitute for diesel fuel in diesel engine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brown hemp methyl ester: Transesterification process and evaluation of fuel properties
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of process parameters such as molar ratio, catalyst concentration, and reaction time was studied to standardize the esterification process and for estimating the highest recovery of ester with lowest possible viscosity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of biodiesel production from grape seed oil using Taguchi's orthogonal array
TL;DR: The physicochemical properties of biodiesel are very similar to those of petroleum diesel fuel as mentioned in this paper, and the main focus of this study is the production of the biodiesel from grape seed oil.
