Production of Biodiesel Fuel from Shea Butter
摘要
Abstract
Samples of biodiesel fuel are obtained using the reaction of transesterification of Shea butter in ethanol medium under supercritical conditions. The kinematic viscosity of the product of the transesterification reaction is measured for comparison with the viscosity of biodiesel fuel determined according to international standards. Measured kinematic viscosities of the samples of biodiesel fuel are presented and analyzed.
