Experiments with rapeseed oil For the Comenius project We are what we eat Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany1
Experiments with rapeseed oil Saponification Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany2
Experiments with rapeseed oil Index Theory Chemicals and materials Method Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany3
Experiments with rapeseed oil Theory Soponification: Cleavage of the esterbonds in a fat molecule by potasium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany4 Soap
Experiments with rapeseed oil Chemicals 200g rapeseed oil Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany5 Sodium chloride 200ml 25% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) 100ml distilled water
Experiments with rapeseed oil Materials pot Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany6 hot plate with magnetic stirrer
Experiments with rapeseed oil Method The rapeseed oil and the distilled water are heated in the pot Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany7
Experiments with rapeseed oil Method The solution is stirred and we add the sodium hydroxide Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany8
Experiments with rapeseed oil Method The sodium chloride is added to our product Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany9
Experiments with rapeseed oil Method Finally the soap is seperated from water and glycerol. The soap can be pressed into shape now Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany10
Experiments with rapeseed oil Transesterification Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany11
Experiments with rapeseed oil Index Theory Chemicals and materials Method Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany12
Experiments with rapeseed oil Theory Transesterification:Concersion of a fatty acid glycerol ester molecule into three fatty acid methyl ester molecules Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany13 Biodiesel
Experiments with rapeseed oil Chemicals 100ml rapeseed oil Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany14 5 sodium hydroxide pellets 30ml methanol
Experiments with rapeseed oil Materials condenser for boiling under backflow Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany15 hot plate with magnetic stirrer
Experiments with rapeseed oil Method The chemicals are placed in the round bottomed flask. Then we heat to the boil under backflow cooling. The final step is to separate the resulting biodiesel from glycerol and water Hohentwiel-Gewerbeschule-Singen/CTA/Germany16
