Engine Performance of Biodiesel Fuel Prepared from Soybean Soastock: A High quality Renewable Fuel Produced from a Waste Feedstock

摘要

A previously developed bench-scale method for the production of fatty acid methyl esters (Biodiesel) from soybean soapstock (Haas, M.J.; Bloomer, S.; Scott, K. J. Am. Oil Chem. Soc. 2000, 77, 373-379) was taken to the small pilot scale, producing approximately 2.5 L of material per run. By multiple successive reactions, 25 L of product was accumulated.
