lost a major advantage over petroleum. A promising alternative fuel source is biodiesel. Unlike ethanol‚ biodiesel can be used as a blend or pure biodiesel in standard diesel engines with little to no adaptations. It also burns a lot cleaner than petro diesel and can extend the life of the engine drastically. Procedure Biodiesel is very versatile and can be produced from many different things. In most cases biodiesel can be produced by transesterification of free fatty acids in which a catalyst

BIODIESEL INCORPORATED Summary Josh‚ Long and Hammond came up with a business idea of manufacturing and distributing biodiesel. The major generation sources‚ petroleum‚ coal‚ natural gas aand nuclear are non renewable resources and have detrimental effects on the environment. The petrochemical fuel industry manifest itself in the form of oil fields and reserves‚ pipelines‚ transport ships‚ and fuelling stations. The whole idea behind the biodiesel was that it can be produced again and it did not

the environment are the reasons for the need and discovery of biodiesel. Biodiesel are basically a fuel that is used as an alternative fuel. This is made using renewable resources like vegetable oil and animal fats. Sweet Potatoes (Ipomea Batatas) are being engineered by North Carolina State University. Scientist are source of ethanol to help the U.S. in their need of fuel. This is the reasons why the researchers decided to make biodiesel out of sweet potato (ipomea batatas) peel to test its feasibility

Determination of the heat of Combustion of Biodiesel Using Bomb Calorimetry Abstract: In this experiment‚ biodiesel fuel was synthesized from vegetable oil. Biodiesel is considered “green” and better for the environment because it is biodegradable. The heat of combustion was then determined using a bomb calorimeter. Introduction: Petroleum is the largest single source of energy consumed by the world’s population‚ exceeding coal‚ natural gas‚ nuclear‚ hydro‚ and renewables (3). It is predicted that
