“…The use of vegetable oils as an alternative fuel for internal combustion engines is limited by some unfavorable fuel properties, mainly their high viscosity and density, which cause problems in poor fuel atomization, incomplete combustion and ring carbonization in the combustion chamber [9]. These problems can be overcome by four methods: blending, microemulsion, transesterification, and pyrolysis [5,6,9]. Among these methods, microemulsion is the easiest to implement because of its least complex process and low cost of production [5,10,11].…”

“…Therefore, biodiesel preparation by microemulsification of oils could be applied to prevent formation of glycerol. The biofuels obtained from this method are transparent and thermodynamically stable, reported as Winsor Type II microemulsions where the polar ethanol phase is dispersed in non-polar phase due to reverse micelle formation [21][22][23][24]. The fact that Jatropha curcus oil (JCO) cannot be used for dietary purposes without detoxification that makes it a very attractive feedstock for biodiesel.…”
