Production of Jatropha curcas L. Seed Oil DMC-Js-BioDs by Optimized Dimethyl Carbonate Using Potassium Hydroxide as CatalystBy Balaji M. Panchal, Hazem M. Kalaji
Abstract: AbstractThe use of Jatropha curcus L. seed oil as the feedstock for biodiesel (DMC-Js-BioDs) production has observed growing interest because it is a non-edible oil. In this study, the production of DMC-Js-BioDs from J. curcas seed oil with dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as the solvent was performed. The reaction was conducted in the presence of KOH as a catalyst to investigate the optimum conditions and study the effects of the variables …
