  • What are the optimum process variables for transesterification of palm oil sludge?
  • In this research work, the optimum process variables (catalyst, methanol to oil ratio and reaction time) for transesterification of palm oil sludge (POS) to biodiesel were studied. The transesterification process was carried by mixture of palm oil sludge, methanol and catalyst with the help of magnetic stirrer at 300 rpm and at temperature of 60ºC.
  • Does transesterification of palm oil sludge produce biodiesel?
  • The biodiesel produced from transesterification of palm oil sludge meets the EN 14214 and ASTM 6751 standard. Thus, this study will be helpful to determine an efficient and economical procedure for biodiesel production from non-edible raw materials with high free fatty acid.
  • What is the reaction rate for palm oil transesterification?
  • The reaction rate for palm oil transesterification can be simplified to describe as in the following Eq. (5): (5) ln 1 − X = k ′ t where X is the yield of biodiesel at time t (min), and k′ is the reaction rate constant.
  • What is the transesterication process of palm and coconut oil?
  • 1. The transesterication process of Palm and Coconut Oil using methanol with an ultrasonic and chemical catalyst of NaOH follows a reaction kinetic of order 2. The that of coconut oil. 2. The corelation of the temperature and the transesterication reaction coefcient transesterication reaction coefcient is of logaritmic corelation type. 3.
  • Can palm oil be used for biodiesel production?
  • And then, they were used for the transesterification of palm oil for biodiesel production. A comprehensive investigation of various parameters was accomplished for biodiesel production, and a kinetic study for the conversion process was also studied to determine the kinetic parameters.
  • Does reaction temperature affect the yield of biodiesel for transesterification of palm oil?
  • The result indicated that the reaction temperature, has prominent effect on the yield of biodiesel for the transesterification of palm oil and the optimum condition is A 3 B 2 C 3 D 3.
