Thermal characterization of P. moriformis oil and biodiesel

Ethyl esters obtained from pequi and macaúba oils by transesterification with homogeneous acid catalysis

“…As shown by the TG curves, there was only one thermal degradation step, which is also shown by the DTG peak. The same observation was made by Bezerra et al [59] and Raslavičius et al [60] who observed that biodiesel thermally decomposes in one step. Also, the maximum degradation temperatures were obtained: 243 and 205 °C for BP and BM, respectively.…”

“…They reported that when oleic acid makes up more than 50% of the PO, the T onset average was 218 °C. In general, the initial biodiesel degradation temperature occurs between 155 and 392 °C [60].…”

Effect of Corn Oil Methyl Ester and Exhaust Gas Recirculation on Per-formance and Emission Characteristics of Diesel Engine

“…The properties of diesel and corn oil methyl ester (biodiesel) are tabulated in Table 1. In the synthesis procedure, a biodiesel yield of 65.2 ± 0.08 g was recorded using a mixture of 80.0 ± 0.08 g algal oil, 0.8 ± 0.006 g KOH and 34.1 ± 0.05 g methanol [19].…”

Operational characteristics of new biological lubricants

“…Исследуемая смазка биологического происхождения производилась путем переработки микроводорослей класса P.morformis. Её химический состав, определенный хромотографически, представлен в таблице 1 [9].Как видно из таблицы, основным компонентом биосмазки является олеиновая кислота -С 17 Н 33 СООН, молекула которой изогнута в виде бумеранга, поэтому очевидно, что многие физические характеристики данной смазки будут подобны свойствам олеиновой кислоты.…”
