Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation and prediction of Jatropha cultivation areas in China and India
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors developed an artificial neural network (ANN) model to predict the cultivation areas for JCL cultivation in China and India, and the obtained results illustrate that the precision accuracy of the applied ANN model is 99.8%.
Investigation of liquid-liquid two-phase flow pattern in microreactors for biodiesel production
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of number of micromixer's inlets on the mixing of soybean oil to Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) was investigated in the microreactor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Free Fatty Acid Pretreatment to Yield, Composition and Activation Energy in Chemical Synthesis of Fatty Acid Methyl Ester
TL;DR: In this article, a preliminary experiment was conducted for transesterification of waste cooking oil (WCO) for fatty acid methyl ester synthesis using CaO as a catalyst with absence and presence of free fatty acid (FFA) pretreatment (untreated and pretreated) prior to reaction have been investigated.

A review on biodiesel production using catalyzed transesterification
TL;DR: In this article, the main factors affecting the yield of biodiesel, i.e. alcohol quantity, reaction time, reaction temperature and catalyst concentration, are discussed, as well as new new processes for biodiesel production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progress and recent trends in biodiesel fuels
TL;DR: The most important variables affecting methyl ester yield during the transesterification reaction are the molar ratio of alcohol to vegetable oil and the reaction temperature as discussed by the authors, which is the commonly used alcohol in this process, due to its low cost.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of biodiesel composition, properties, and specifications
TL;DR: In this paper, the fatty acid (FA) profiles of 12 common biodiesel feedstocks were summarized, and it was shown that several fuel properties, including viscosity, specific gravity, cetane number, iodine value, and low temperature performance metrics are highly correlated with the average unsaturation of the FA profiles.
