Cetane number prediction of waste cooking oil-derived biodiesel prior to transesterification reaction using near infrared spectroscopy
(Elsevier, 2019-03)
Fifty waste cooking oils (WCOs) were transesterified with methanol (1:8 WCO:methanol molar ratio) at 60 °C for 60 min using NaOH as catalyst (1% wt.). Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) composition of the resulting biodiesels was ...

Determination of the Acidity of Waste Cooking Oils by Near Infrared Spectroscopy
(MDPI, 2019)
Waste cooking oils (WCO) recycling companies usually have economic losses for buying WCO not suitable for biodiesel production, e.g., WCO with high free acidity (FA). For this reason, the determination of FA of WCO by ...

Esterification of Free Fatty Acids with Glycerol within the Biodiesel Production Framework
(MDPI, 2019)
Companies in the field of the collection and treatment of waste cooking oils (WCO) for subsequent biodiesel production usually have to cope with high acidity oils, which cannot be directly transformed into fatty acid methyl ...

Biodiesel production from waste cooking oil in an oscillatory flow reactor. Performance as a fuel on a TDI diesel engine
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
This paper describes the biodiesel production from waste cooking oil (50% (v/v) olive oil/sunflower oil) in an oscillatory flow reactor (OFR) in batch mode. We mainly focused on the characteristics of the biodiesel and ...
