ABSTRACT
This work, deals with, esterification, of.
palm, kernel, oil to produce palm kernel., oil methyL eater, which, is. the.
biodiesel in a batch, reactor,. using 98% concentrated sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
catalyst... Palm kernel. oil. (PKO.) biodiesel was produced through,
transesterification of PKO with ethanol using sodium hydroxide. (NaOH) catalyst.
The biodiesel was characterized. as alternative fuel for dieseL engine. through
ASTPL standard fuel tests.. The using 100g PKO, 20.0% ethanol (wt% PKO), 1.0%
NaO.lL, reaction temperature and 90 min reaction, time yielded average 95.8%
PKO biodiesel. for three replications... Fuel tests conducted on the biodiesel
showed 85.06% reduction of viscosity over its. raw PKO. at 4.0°C,. Higher
specific gravity, cloud, and pour points were obtained compared to that of
petroleum, diesel.. Results obtained are in good agreement with, published data
for other vegetable oil. biodiesel. as well as various. international standards
for biodiesel fuel.
