  • How to make biodiesel from sunflower seeds?
  • The oil extracted from seeds was applied for biodiesel production through transesterification using a 6:1 methanol to oil molar ratio with 0.7% catalyst at 50 °C for 65 min. The process resulted in a 96.2% biodiesel yield with a heating value of 41.6 MJ/kg, corresponding to 84 kg biodiesel per ton of sunflower crop and 108.8 L gasoline-equivalent.
  • How is biodiesel produced from sunflower oil?
  • In this present study biodiesel was produced from sunflower oil by base-catalyzed transesterification process. A 30 L per batch experimental installation was used to produce biodiesel using a molar ratio of alcohol to oil 6:1, a reaction temperature of 65 °C and a reaction time of 2 h.
  • Can sunflower oil be used for biofuel production?
  • The residues of the sunflower crop are inexpensive and widely available substrates. These waste streams are typically burned or even left unused, creating serious environmental issues. In the present study, sunflower oil and its residues are used for biofuel production in the biorefinery framework.
  • Can sunflower produce biogas and biodiesel?
  • The results showed the high potential of the sunflower crop for biogas and biodiesel production, even without pretreatment and acidic transesterification. The optimum biorefinery produced 11095.0 MJ bioenergy (210.9 m 3 methane and 0.084 t biodiesel) per ton of sunflower.
  • What is the optimum temperature for biodiesel production from sunflower oil?
  • The results of the present study demonstrated that 1 h of reaction and a temperature of 25 °C (which can be considered as an ambient temperature and therefore does not require energy expenditure) present the optimum conditions for the production of biodiesel from sunflower oil and give a high yield (95.28 %).
  • Can sunflower waste cooking oil be produced over enhanced bifunctional catalyst?
  • In this study, the production of FAME from sunflower waste cooking oil over the enhanced bifunctional catalyst was studied, to investigate the relationships between selected conditions of time, temperature and catalyst loading in obtaining a maximum yield, and optimum reaction conditions for the transesterification.
