Abstract
Biodiesel (fatty acid methyl ester, or FAME) can be used as an alternative fuel
for diesel engines which is produced by the chemical reaction of vegetable oil
or animal fat with an alcohol such as ethanol or methanol in the presence of a
catalyst. The growing interest in biodiesel is because of the similarity in its
properties when compared with the diesel fuel as well as various benefits it
provides such as lower soot emissions, less dependency on crude oil, etc. The
optimization of experimental parameters, such as catalyst concentration, molar
ratio of alcohol to oil, and reaction time, on the transesterification for the
production of deodar methyl ester was performed in this article. Optimization of
the transesterification process of deodar oil was achieved by a three-factorial
central composite design (CCD) using response surface methodology (RSM) in 20
experimental runs. The RSM was performed to determine the optimum operating
conditions and to optimize the biodiesel yield. A second-order mathematical
model was obtained to predict the yield as a function of molar ratio, catalyst
concentration, and reaction time. The free fatty acid (FFA) content of deodar
oil was 1.86% which is below the 2% recommended for the application of the
one-step alkaline transesterification method. The optimum biodiesel yield of
98.5% was obtained by transesterification of deodar oil with 0.75 wt. % of
catalysts and a methanol-to-oil molar ratio of 5 at 65°C for 34.5 min. The high
biodiesel yield can be correlated to the high basicity of the catalyst.
