摘要：

The production of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) from crude tobacco seed oil (TSO) having high free fatty acids (FFA) was investigated. Due to its high FFA, the TSO was processed in two steps: the acid-catalyzed esterification (ACE) followed by the base-catalyzed methanolysis (BCM). The first step reduced the FFA level to less than 2% in 25 min for the molar ratio of 18:1. The second step converted the product of the first step into FAME and glycerol. The maximum yield of FAME was about 91% in about 30 min. The tobacco biodiesel obtained had the fuel properties within the limits prescribed by the latest American (ASTM D 6751-02) and European (DIN EN 14214) standards, except a somewhat higher acid value than that prescribed by the latter standard (< 0.5). Thus, tobacco seeds (TS), as agricultural wastes, might be a valuable renewable raw material for the biodiesel production. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
