Influence of injection timing and exhaust gas recirculation of a Calophyllum inophyllum methyl ester fuelled CI engine
TL;DR: In this paper, a strategy is developed to reduce NOX emissions of Calophyllum inophyllium biodiesel fuelled diesel engine by varying the injection timing between 21°, 23° and 25° bTDC and by admitting exhaust gas recirculation at the rate of 10, 20% and 30%.

Optimization of transesterification process for Ceiba pentandra oil: A comparative study between kernel-based extreme learning machine and artificial neural networks
F. Kusumo,Arridina Susan Silitonga,Haji Hassan Masjuki,Hwai Chyuan Ong,Joko Siswantoro,Teuku Meurah Indra Mahlia +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, kernel-based extreme learning machine (K-ELM) and artificial neural network (ANN) models were developed in order to predict the conditions of an alkaline-catalysed transesterification process The reliability of these models was assessed and compared based on the coefficient of determination (R2), root mean squared error (RSME), mean average percent error (MAPE), and relative percent deviation (RPD)

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.

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.
