“…Similar observations were reported by other researchers indicating the increase in biodiesel production with increasing temperature, especially for solid acids catalyst [32]. Lin et al [33] suggested that at higher reaction temperature, biodiesel undergoes several thermal decomposition reactions such as polymerization, isomerization and pyrolysis. These reactions are much pronounced within the range of 250-425°C, leading to decreasing products yields.…”

“…This is in agreement with similar understanding derived from studies of the kinetics of thermal decomposition of other fuels such as coal char (Roberts et al, 2015;Niu et al, 2016), plastics (Apaydin-Varol et al, 2014), municipal solid waste (Conesa & Rey, 2015) and biodiesel (Lin et al, 2013). Hence, the objective of this investigation is to determine the combustion and decomposition characteristics of the four tropical biomass species using the TG method.…”

“…Moreover, He et al 18) found that the decrease in FAME yield for transesterification conducted in a continuous reactor was due to the reduction in unsaturated ester content caused by isomerization and thermal decomposition, especially for C18: 2 and C18: 3. Lin et al 19) studied the thermal decomposition mechanisms of biodiesel fuel, and identified processes involving isomerization, polymerization (Diels-Alder reaction), and pyrolysis which occurred in the ranges 275-400 , 300-425 , and 350 , respectively. These mechanisms also reduce the FAME yield in the spiral reactor, but the reaction in the heat exchanger helps to achieve higher FAME yields compared to the conventional reactor, especially in this high temperature range.…”
