“…(4) The conical flask containing the mixture of oil, alcohol and catalyst was heated at a constant temperature of 50-60°C (Patrascoiu et al 2013;Meka et al 2007;Duz et al 2011) and stirred at the same time simultaneously inside a water bath shaker at about 700 rev/min for 60 min, 75 min and 90 min, respectively. (5) After completion of the reaction time, the products were poured into a separating funnel and kept 1-2 h for separation of phases (Ilkilic et al 2011). In the separating funnel, the products separated into two layers.…”

Biodiesel is an alternative renewable fuel which is produced by using biomass resources. Its physicochemical properties are close to those of the petroleum diesel fuel. This study highlights biodiesel production from safflower seed oil. The main aim of this experimental work is to optimize the process parameters, namely the methanolto-oil molar ratio, catalyst concentration, reaction time and reaction temperature for biodiesel production. The Taguchi robust design approach was used with an L9 orthogonal array to analyze the influence of process factors on performance parameters. The results showed that the optimum yield of biodiesel was 93.8% with viscosity 5.60 cSt, with a methanol-to-oil molar ratio of 4:1, catalyst concentration of 1.5 wt%, reaction time of 90 min and reaction temperature of 60°C. The catalyst concentration was found to be the most influencing parameter which contributed 51.1% and 50.8% of the total effect on the yield of biodiesel, Y 1 , and viscosity of biodiesel, Y 2 , respectively.

“…Transesterification pyrolysis of safflower bio-oil to produce biodiesel has been reported by Sensoz et al (2008). It was observed that biofuels derived from vegetables are eco-friendly (Ilkilic et al 2011). Although India is the largest safflower-producing country, only small amounts of safflower oil are exported from here.…”

“…Performance and combustion characteristics of a direct injection diesel engine fueled with waste palm oil and canola oil methyl esters as biodiesel fuels have been investigated [4]. Safflower oil derived biodiesel has been presented as a probable candidate as fuel for diesel engines [5]. However, direct use of biodiesel and vegetable oils may cause to some problems as well as performance decrease in diesel engines [6].…”

“…The adverse effects of fossil fuels on the environment and human health have been proven in recent years. The most important issue is that the fossil fuels are on the point of exhausting in addition to the positive and negative effects of its use (Pieprzyk et al, 2009;İlkılıç et al, 2011;Aydın, 2016). …”

ABSTRACTn this study, produced by the transesterification method safflower methyl ester material is used. Trials, 4-stroke, 4-cylinder, with engine test was conducted in a water-cooled engine has common rail fuel system. And B2 (2% v safflower biodiesel -98% Eurodiesel), B10 and B50 biodiesel-Eurodiesel fuel blends have been accepted as the reference fuel. The results are given in comparatively. The main factor of the observed changes in engine performance when biodiesel is used is the low calorific value fuel compared to Eurodiesel fuel. There is an increase in engine power as a result of the improvement of the fuel oxidation of oxygen in the body of biodiesel in the partial load conditions. While emission changes are taking place in accordance with the terms of reference fuel emission produced by alternative fuels, it has constructed the partial differences in the rate of increase and decrease. Due to the fact that the engine used in the experiments keeps the fuel under a very high pressure, HC emissions are lower than the other engines. ÖZET u çalışmada transesterifikasyon yöntemi ile Aspir yağından biyodizel üretilmiştir. Çalışmada kullanılan deney motoru, common-rail yakıt sistemine sahip, su soğutmalı ve 4-silindirli 4 zamanlı diesel motorudur. Üretilen biyodizelden B2 (%2 Aspir biyodizeli, %98 Eurodizel), B10 ve B50 karışımları hazırlanmış, referans yakıt olarak da Eurodizel kabul edilmiş ve sonuçlar karşılaştırmalı olarak verilmiştir. Biyodizel kullanıldığında motor performansında gözlenen değişikliklerde başlıca etken yakıtın ısıl değerinin Eurodizele göre düşük olmasıdır. Kısmi yük şartlarında biyodizelin bünyesindeki oksijenin yakıtın oksidasyonunu iyileştirmesi sonucu motor gücünde artış olmuştur. Emisyon değişimleri alternatif yakıtların üretmiş olduğu emisyonlar bakımından referans yakıt ile uyum içerisinde yer alırken artma ve azalma oranlarında kısmı farklılıklar oluşturmaktadır. Deneylerde kullanılan motorun yakıtı çok yüksek basınç altında tutmasından dolayı HC emisyonları diğer motorlara göre düşük çıkmıştır. Biyodizel kullanımında, yakıt içeriğinde oksijen bulunması sebebi ile egzoz gazlarındaki NOx miktarında artış olmuştur. Yapılan bu çalışmada da egzoz gazları içindeki NOx miktarının en fazla B100 yakıtında olduğu görülmüştür.
