Biodiesel for Research and Education Research Presentation Jennifer Keiner Chris Behm

Overview Goals Background Procedures Results & Conclusions Future Research

Goals Determine the effect of parameters on the conversion of free fatty acids(FFA) of waste cooking oil(WCO) Investigate effect of citric acid washings on water consumption for biodiesel purification processes Analyze and compare biodiesel produced using methanol and ethanol

Background Biodiesel research started as an alternative fuel source to petroleum derived diesel, benefits include: –A renewable energy resource –Able to be blended with traditional diesel –Less particulate matter, CO2 emissions, and sulfur dioxide emission

Background Cont. Potential Problems o Production consumes a lot water, especially during feedstock development (growth of soybean) Solutions o Alternative feedstock that uses less water can be of great interest such as waste cooking oil o Less water intensive techniques should be used for biodiesel purification methods (citric acid wash)

Procedure Acid Pre-treatment –Materials: Waste cooking oil Methanol, 50:1 molar ratio H 2 SO 4 : (15% wt of FFA) Indicator solution –Procedure: Prepare materials according to theoretical calculations Heat the oil to 56 C Add the sulfuric acid and methanol mixture Draw samples Titrate with NaOH to determine FFA

Results & Conclusions Time (Minutes) FFA Conversion Conversion of FFA Graph

Procedure Citric Acid Wash –Materials: Crude biodiesel 1:1 ratio of wash of water, 2%, 3%, and 4% citric acid solution to biodiesel –Procedure: Separate crude biodiesel into 4 separation funnels. Add the four types of washes to each funnel. Let sit for 30 minutes. Drain the washing solution. Take a 3 mL sample of the biodiesel. Repeat until water comes clear.. In a test tube mix, biodiesel sample, methanol and shake for 10 seconds. Impurities will settle to the bottom allowing identification of the best washing solution.

Results & Conclusions Left picture: Waste water from biodiesel washing. Left was only water and was cloudy after the 2 nd wash. Water was not as effective as citric acid solution after the first and second wash. Concentration of citric acid had a minimal effect.

Procedure Production comparing methanol and ethanol –Materials Canola oil produced with ethanol and methanol WCO from different sources produced with methanol Procedure –Produce biodiesel by transesterfication –Wash biodiesel –Dilute biodiesel with DCM for use in GC –Run samples through the GC Dilution of Biodiesel

GC Results Different oil sources can yield different biodiesel ester profiles. Waste cooking oil and virgin canola produce similar components. WCO and virgin canola oil produce different relative amounts of components. Alcohols have direct influence on composition of biodiesel.

Future Work Determine if any other substances will allow for less water to be used in the biodiesel production. Investigate the kinetics of the acid pretreatment. Explore the next generation of biodiesel feedstock. Explore uses of glycerin byproduct of biodiesel for making soap. Glycerin Soap
