摘要
Biodiesel production from non-edible oils has become one of the most crucial areas in search for renewable fuels due to rapid depletion of fossil fuels and food versus fuel issues. Aleurites trisperma, a tree species belonging to Euphorbiaceae family yields about 25-30-kg seeds per tree per year during July-August. Seeds contain about 38-40 % oil which is rich in nervonic acid. The oil is highly viscous (100.2mm(2)/s) with high content of free fatty acids (7.14 %). Biodiesel production has been carried out adopting a two stage process, involving acid esterification and alkali catalyzed transesterification. Transesterification using 1:6 oil to methanol molar ratio at 60 degrees C for 60 min was optimum with maximum conversion of 96.62 %, indicating this tree oil as a potential non-edible source for biodiesel production.
