Microwave assisted production of biodiesel from beef tallow

© 2015 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. In this study, microwave-heated biodiesel production from catalyzed transesterification of beef tallow was investigated for a range of reaction times between 10-30 min, temperatures between 40-60°C, amounts of alkali catalyst between 0.25-0.75% w/w, and tall...

In this study, microwave-heated biodiesel production from catalyzed transesterification of beef tallow was investigated for a range of reaction times between 10-30 min, temperatures between 40-60°C, amounts of alkali catalyst between 0.25-0.75% w/w, and tallow to methanol molar ratio between 1:3 to 1:9. Results showed that fast conversion of beef tallow into biodiesel can be obtained with microwave heating. High biodiesel yields of 98% with an ester content over 96.5% can be achieved within 10 min at a molar ratio of 1:6, a catalyst concentration of 0.75%, and reaction temperature of 60°C. 2018-01-24T04:43:37Z 2018-01-24T04:43:37Z 2015-01-01 Journal 15567230 15567036 2-s2.0-84937061249 10.1080/15567036.2011.631092 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=84937061249&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/44488
