Theory: In the production of biodiesel from cooking oils (glycerides) and methanol are combined with sodium hydroxide as a catalyst. This causes the oils to break apart and reaction of the oils with the methanol. As seen in Figure 1‚ this produces biodiesel (in the form of esters) and glycerol. Figure 1: The production of biodiesel (esters) from glyceride (cooking oils) and an alcohol (methanol). In combustion‚ a substance can be completely or incompletely combusted. In complete combustion‚

stroke diesel engine ran on peanut oil on 10th August 1893 during it’s limelight show to public. Hence‚ to mark this historical incident and one would highlight as a co-incident of gifting bio fuel‚ the date 10th August is declared as ‘International Biodiesel Day’ by the Society of Automotive Engineers. It is high time to remind the scientists of present day about the famous words of Rudolf Diesel during his address to German Automobile Engineers Guild in 1912‚ when a confusion arose to identify the efficiency

CASE 5 Why Did Global Food Prices Rise? Case Summary For the past 25 years‚ food prices have been declining due to increased productivity and output from the farm sector worldwide. In 2007 however‚ this changed. There are two main explanations to this. The first is an increased demand for food in rapidly developing nations such as China and India. Meat in particular has contributed to the rising prices as farmers have to feed their animals an extensive amount of grain in order to keep up with

At the state that the US is currently in‚ we need an oil alternative‚ which is both economically friendly‚ and environmentally friendly. Algae farming tends to fall in both of these categories; what’s more‚ it is also efficient. For three very important rationales‚ I stand in a strong affirmation for this bill‚ in which we will fund algae farming. First off‚ Algae farming can be farmed realistically anywhere. There are very few requirements for algae biofuel. All biofuels that are created from land

Discussion Question: 1. What degree of confidence do you have that Gerritsen‚ Buck‚ and Leay will be able to execute their three-point plan? What factors have to come together for the plan to work? What advantages does Aquaflow have in its efforts to execute the plan and continue to grow? Answer: They can truly execute the three-point plan because it can be one of the most competitive player in the market. Some factors to consider to make this plan work is that Aquaflow must use wild algae to help

The Why of Where of Sunny D Canola Oil A. Where and how is the breakfast item produced? Canola was naturally bred from rapeseed (or field mustard) at the University of Manitoba‚ Canada. Canada and America produce canola. * Canola is best grown as a winter crop in soil with pH level between 5.5-8.3. It will grow well in most sites as long as the soil is well drained. * Canola is normally grown in acres and can be double cropped with winter wheat

Algae Could Solve World’s Fuel Crisis Von Philip Bethge Dan Robertson is working on algae that can produce biofuel. Genetically modified blue and green algae could be the answer to the world’s fuel problems. Bioengineers have already developed algae that produce ethanol‚ oil and even diesel -- and the only things the organisms need are sunlight‚ CO2 and seawater.
