“…For example, patents have recently been filed for a process creating protein concentrate from canola meal and for SSF processes for producing protein concentrates from renewable resources [1,2]. Brassica carinata is a domestic plant commonly grown in the Ethiopian highlands, Spain, California and Italy, that can be cultivated in a rotation with cash crops to enhance agricultural sustainability by diversifying crop rotations, which disrupts pest and weed cycles [3]. B. carinata has also been established as a drought and heat tolerant oilseed crop in Canada [4].…”

“…Međutim, korišćenje jestivih ulja u procesima dobijanja biodizela ograničavaju njihova primarna primena u ljudskoj ishrani i visoka cena. S obzirom da u ukupnoj ceni proizvodnje biodizela uljne sirovine imaju najveći udeo [3,4], poslednjih godina pažnju istraživača privlači ispitivanje mogućnosti primene novih i jeftinijih ulja kao što su ulja dobijena iz semena različitih korovskih biljaka: etiopijska slačica (Brassica carinata) [5], kravlja trava (Thlaspi arvense L.)

2 Prirodno-matematički fakultet, Odsek Biologija i Ekologija, Univerzitet u Nišu, Niš, Srbija Ulje semena korovske biljke magareći trn (Onopordum acanthium L.) je korišćeno za sintezu metil estara masnih kiselina. Zbog većeg kiselinskog broja ulja, primenjen je dvostepeni proces koji uključuje esterifikaciju slobodnih masnih kiselina u ulju katalizovanu H2SO4 i metanolizu esterifikovanog ulja katalizovanu KOH. Kinetika reakcije metanolize esterifikovanog ulja je modelovana primenom nepovratne reakcije pseudo-prvog reda i pseudo-drugog reda. Izračunate su konstante brzine reakcije metanolize i energije aktivacije. Adekvatnost modela procenjivana je na osnovu vrednosti R 2 linearnih zavisnosti i srednjeg relativnog procentnog odstupanja eksperimentalnih i izračunatih vrednosti stepena konverzije triacilglicerola. Iako su oba kinetička modela pogodna za fitovanje eksperimentalnih podataka, veća tačnost je ostvarena primenom modela nepovratne reakcije pseudo-drugog reda. Karakteristike dobijenog biodizela su, generalno, u okviru vrednosti propisanih standardom kvaliteta bodizela EN14214. Zbog toga, seme O. acanthium L. može biti korišćeno kao jeftina sirovina za sintezu biodizela.Ključne reči: dvostepeni process; biodizel; kinetika; magareći trn; metanoliza; Onopordum acanthium L. UvodDemografska ekspanzija i razvoj industrije uslovljavaju kontinualno povećanje potreba za energijom, zbog čega su mnogobrojna istraživanja usmerena ka pronalaženju novih, alternativnih izvora energije: iskorišćenju energije biomase, sunca, vetra, talasa i plime i oseke. U sektoru transporta najčešću primenu imaju goriva dobijena iz biomase, među kojima značajno mesto zauzima biodizel. Biodizel predstavlja ekološki "čisto" gorivo, biorazgradivo i manje toksično u odnosu na dizel fosilnog porekla, koje se dobija iz obnovljivih sirovina i pogodno je za primenu u dizel motorima. Dobija se postupkom alkoholize biljnih ulja ili životinjskih masti sa nižim alifatičnim alkoholima. Najčešće korišćeni alkoholi u sintezi biodizela su metanol, a u poslednje vreme i etanol [1]. Za dobijanje biodizela trenutno se najčešće koriste jestiva biljna ulja, kao što su: ulje uljane repice, soje, suncokreta ili palme [2]. Međutim, korišćenje jestivih ulja u procesima dobijanja biodizela ograničavaju njihova primarna primena u ljudskoj ishrani i visoka cena. S obzirom da u ukupnoj ceni proizvodnje biodizela uljne sirovine imaju najveći udeo [3,4], poslednjih godina pažnju istraživača privlači ispitivanje mogućnosti primene novih i jeftinijih ulja kao što su ulja dobijena iz semena različitih korovskih biljaka:Magareći trn ili čkalj (Onopordum acanthium L.) je korovska biljka koja pripada familiji Asteraceae. Ova familija biljaka predstavlja najobimniju familiju dikotiledonih skrivenosemenica. Njihova primena je široka, kako u narodnoj medicini za lečenje povišenog krvnog pritiska [10], tako i u hemijskoj industriji za proizvodnju biogoriva pirolizom [11] ili likvefakcijom [12] biomase. U dosadašnjim istraživanjima ulje semena Onopordum acanthium L. nije ispit...

Abstract. Biodiesel is a mixture of esters of short chain alcohols, produced as an alternative fuel for mineral diesel substitution. It is originated from renewable sources (fats and oils) and is less pollutants. But for its implementation, it is necessary to analyze some important quality parameters. A very important fuel`s feature is the calorific value, which represents the amount of heat transferred into the chamber during the combustion and indicates the available energy in fuel. The calorific value is obtained experimentally using a calorimetric bomb. The higher the calorific value, the higher is the yield of the fuel. The aim of this study is to determine the calorific value of rapeseed, soybean, jatropha curcas and crambe biodiesel using a calorimetric bomb. The results were associated with the ethyl ester composition of each biodiesel. The crambe biodiesel shows the highest calorific value (∆H= 40564 J g -1 ) influenced by the high amount of long chain ethyl ester originated from behenic acid (C22:0) that composes 57.2% of crambe oil. The rapeseed, soybean and jatropha curcas biodiesel that exhibit approximately the same amount of long chain ethyl ester showed calorific values near to ∆H= 39450 J g -1 .
