  • Can palm oil be converted to methyl ester?
  • The conversion of crude palm oil to methyl ester efficiently achieved a maximum of 97.58% under the ideal conditions. Furthermore, the biodiesel was characterized and found to meet the specific standard for biodiesel as specified in the ASTM D6751 and EN 14214.
  • How are methyl esters prepared?
  • Methyl esters were prepared from mixed crude palm oil containing a high free fatty acid content by using a two-stage process. Sulfuric acid was used as the catalyst in an esterification reaction which was then followed by a transesterification reaction using sodium hydroxide as the catalyst.
  • What is biodiesel (methyl esters)?
  • Biodiesel (methyl esters) is a clean alternative fuel which can be produced from many renewable resources. Palm oil like other vegetable oils can be used as feedstock for biodiesel production. It is processed through transesterification to produce palm oil methyl ester.
  • What is the molar ratio of methanol to palm oil?
  • Crabbe et al. (2001) found that by using 3% of sulfuric acid and 23:1 molar ratio of methanol to crude palm oil, 78 % w/w methyl ester could be produced. But to complete the reaction a molar ratio of 35:1 - 45:1 was required.
  • Can acid catalysis be used with palm oil?
  • Acid catalysis can be used with this kind of oil but requires a very high molar ratio of alcohol to oil to produce the maximum yield of ester. Crabbe et al. (2001) found that by using 3% of sulfuric acid and 23:1 molar ratio of methanol to crude palm oil, 78 % w/w methyl ester could be produced.
  • How are fatty acid methyl esters produced?
  • Fatty acid methyl esters are convent-ionally produced by the transesterification of vegetable oils and fats using methanol in the presence of a suitable catalyst. Essentially, tran-sesterification is the chemical reaction between triacyl glycerides and alcohol in the presence of a catalyst to produce mono-esters.
