Biodiesel, an “alternative” diesel fuel derived from vegetable oils, animal fats or used fry-ing oils, largely consists of the mono-alkyl esters of the fatty acids comprising these feedstocks. This research work covers the factors influencing in biodiesel oxidative stability and their interaction by using Rancimat stability method.
Use of abundant indigenous energy crops for biofuel production contributes to enhance the economy and reduce the dependence on fossil fuels. This article aims to shed light on two energy crops available in Pakistan; castor (Ricinus communis L.) and cottonseed (Gossypium hirsutum L.). Although castor has excellent oil content (54%), its high viscosity is not acceptable. Therefore, pre-blending with cottonseed oil was proposed.
