Moringa oleifera oil: a possible source of biodiesel.
TL;DR: Overall, M. oleifera oil appears to be an acceptable feedstock for biodiesel, and the methyl esters obtained from this oil exhibit a high cetane number, one of the highest found for a biodiesel fuel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of biodiesel through optimized alkaline-catalyzed transesterification of rapeseed oil
Umer Rashid,Farooq Anwar +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an optimized protocol for the production of biodiesel through alkaline-catalyzed transesterification of rapeseed oil was presented. But, it was noted that greater or lower the concentration of KOH or methanol than the optimal values, the reaction either did not fully occur or lead to soap formation.
BookDOI
Biomass and bioenergy
TL;DR: In this paper, the properties improvement techniques of the selected non-wood biomasses and evaluates its applications for various purposes are discussed, and new developments dealing with the improvement of nonwood properties have also been presented in the chapter.
Journal ArticleDOI

M. M. Rahman,M. M. Rahman,Mohamad Amran Mohd Salleh,Umer Rashid,Amimul Ahsan,Mohammad Mujaffar Hossain,Chang Six Ra +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the studies conducted on the removal and recovery of phosphorus and nitrogen from wastewaters through struvite crystallization is presented, which deals with the principles and concept of struvites nucleation, crystal growth and the factors that affect on the struvitsite quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles through reduction with Solanum xanthocarpum L. berry extract: characterization, antimicrobial and urease inhibitory activities against Helicobacter pylori
TL;DR: A green synthesis route for the production of silver nanoparticles using methanol extract from Solanum xanthocarpum berry (SXE) is reported in the present investigation, and AgNps under study were found to be equally efficient against the antibiotic-resistant and antibiotic-susceptible strains of H. pylori.
