Biofuel has got tremendous attraction for the last decade as an alternative source of energy.
Bioethanol and biodiesel are two main products of first generation biofuel. Biodiesel is …

Biodiesel is an alternative fuel composed of mono-alkyl esters and obtained mainly from the
base-catalyzed transesterification reaction of oils or fats. Its use (pure or blended) does not …

A newly developed ReactIR flow cell is reported as a convenient and versatile inline
analytical tool for continuous flow chemical processing. The flow cell, operated with ATR …

An analytical method has been developed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
(FTIR) to determine biodiesel content in the reaction mixture to monitor the transesterification …

Biodiesel is primarily obtained from the base catalyzed transesterification reaction of oils or
fats. Biodiesel has become more attractive due to its characteristics of being bio-degradable …

In this work, the use of 1H NMR spectroscopy and statistical approach to the evaluation of
biodiesel–diesel blends quality is described. Forty-six mixtures of oil–diesel, biodiesel …

Sodium molybdate (Na2MoO4) has been synthesized and investigated as a heterogeneous
catalyst for the methanolysis of different types of renewable lipid sources derived from the …

In the past few years, biodiesel has gained considerable attention due to the increasing
concern for the environmental problems associated with the use of fossil fuels. The quality …

In this work, a Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression model using Near-Infrared (NIR)
spectroscopy was developed to monitor the progress of the catalyzed transesterification …

The use of biodiesel shows innumerous advantages compared to fossil fuels, since
biodiesel is a biodegradable and non-toxic fuel. Nowadays, most of the biodiesel …
