Kinetics of sunflower and used vegetable oil methanolysis catalyzed by CaO·ZnO
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The kinetics of heterogeneous methanolysis of sunflower oil and used vegetable oil were studied at different temperatures, ranging from 60 to 96 degrees C using CaO center dot ZnO as catalyst (2 wt% on the basis of oil) ...
Thermodynamic properties of biodiesel and petro-diesel blends at high pressures and temperatures. Experimental and modeling
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
One of the solutions to greenhouse gases emission is the use of biodiesels, since their mixtures with petro-diesel can be used as fuel in existing diesel engines without additional corrections in engines' design. In order ...
Biodiesel production by methanolysis of waste lard from piglet roasting over quicklime
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Waste lard from piglet roasting and quicklime (basically CaO) as a priceless fatty feedstock and a cheap solid catalyst, respectively were tested for the biodiesel production by methanolysis in a batch stirred reactor at ...
Calcium diglyceroxide synthesized by mechanochemical treatment, its characterization and application as catalyst for fatty acid methyl esters production
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
In the present work, calcium diglyceroxide (CaDG) was synthesized by mechanochemical treatment of CaO dispersed in glycerol, and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal analysis (TGA/DTA), infrared spectroscopy ...
Valorization of damaged rice grains: Optimization of bioethanol production by waste brewer's yeast using an amylolytic potential from the Paenibacillus chitinolyticus CKS1
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Damaged grains that are not useful for food or feed are abundant and cheap. The main objective of this paper was to valorize damaged rice grains for bioethanol production using presacchararification step followed by ...
Biodiesel density and derived thermodynamic properties at high pressures and moderate temperatures
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Knowledge of the basic thermodynamic properties of biodiesel under different conditions is necessary because of its wide use as a substitute for fossil fuels. The viscosities and refractive indices of the methyl and ethyl ...
Kinetics of sunflower oil methanolysis catalyzed by calcium oxide
(Elsevier, 2009)
The methanolysis of sunflower oil was studied in the presence of CaO previously calcined at various temperatures and the optimal temperature for CaO calcination was determined. The sigmoidal process kinetics was explained ...
Continuous sunflower oil methanolysis over quicklime in a packed-bed tubular reactor
(Elsevier Ltd, 2015)
The continuous sunflower oil methanolysis catalyzed by quicklime in a packed-bed tubular reactor of 60 cm height was studied at 60 °C using methanol-to-oil molar ratios from 6:1 to 18:1 and weight hourly space velocities ...
Bioethanol production from corn meal by simultaneous enzymatic saccharification and fermentation with immobilized cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. ellipsoideus
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
The simultaneous enzymatic saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of corn meal using immobilized cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. ellipsoideus yeast in a batch system was studied. The yeast cells were immobilized ...
Fermentation of wheat and triticale hydrolysates: A comparative study
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
In bioethanol production four wheat varieties were investigated: NS 40S, Renesansa, Rapsodija and Dragana, as well as four triticale varieties: Oganj, Jutro, Odisej and NST 21/06. The samples were grinded and mixed with ...
