Abstract:
Rising prices and depletion of fossil fuels make it very necessary today to find an alternative fuel made from non-edible oil seeds (biodiesel). This paper describes the transesterification of Custard apple seed oil using methanol in the presence of potassium hydroxide catalyst at temperatures below 65 °C. The viscosity of biodiesel made from Custard apple seed oil is close to that of commercial diesel. Custard apple seed oil is characterized by GC (Gas Chromatography) analysis, showing density, flash point, cloud point, pour point, dynamics Key biodiesel properties such as viscosity, ash, and carbon residue are determined and compared to those from ASTM based Biodiesel standards and commercial diesel. This study will facilitate biodiesel production from custard apple seed oil (Annona squamosa) and increase the value of custard apple fruit.
Keywords:
biodiesel, custard apple seed oil, production, transesterification.
