Fuel Properties of Biodiesels and Seed Oil for Biodiesel Production Mahajan Tanuja, Pawar Shwetambari Department Of Chemistry, Vikrama Simhapuri University, Nellore, Andhra Pradesh, India Online published on 24 November, 2017. Abstract The seed oils of Zinnia elegans Jacq [ZE] and Salvia farinacea Benth [SF] plant species are selected for this analytical study. These species yield 27.7% and 27.1% non edible seed oil respectively. The details of com-ponent fatty acids [CFA] and other essential analytical data such as iodine value [IV], saponification value [SV] are collected from the literature. The major parameters of bio-diesel viz., cetane number [CN], lower heating value [LHV] and higher heating value [HHV] of the fatty acid methyl esters [FAMEs] are empirically computed. The bio-diesel properties of these seed oils are evaluated with reference to existing bio-diesels. This work reports the suitability of these species for the bio-diesel production. Top Keywords Zinnia elegans Jacq, Salvia farinacea Benth, fatty acids, biodiesel, industrial relevance. Top | |
