Project Name : Biodiesel Production at HDME
Theme Name : Energy Resource & Conservation
Biodiesel is a bio-fuel energy oil which is completely made of the natural components like vegetable oils, plant fats and oils are composed of triglycerides which contain free fatty acids. We use ethanol as a good nucleophile in presence of NAOH, to carry out a transetherification reaction, and then we obtain ethyl esters of fatty acids whicharebio-fuel, and glycerin industry.
Unique features of our exhibit include “all in one “unit sufficient to produce usable biodiesel, which, after sedimentation, can be used directly in diesel combustion engine without modification. The only byproduct glycerin is utilized in the cosmetic industry.
Bio-fuel is an eco-friendly and economical substitute to diesel and other conventional sources of energy.
