Trimethylolpropane triesters are biodegradable synthetic lubricant base oil alternative to mineral oils, polyalphaolefins and diesters. These oils can be produced from trimethylolpropane (TMP) fatty acid methyl esters via chemical or enzymatic catalyzed synthesis methods. In the present study, a commercial palm derived winter grade biodiesel (ME18) was evaluated as viable sustainable ester source for of high oleic (HO-TMPTE). ME18 has profile containing 86.8% acid, 8.7% linoleic with...
An improved method in biodiesel production using jatropha curcas oil is discussed this study. There are two steps process involved namely esterification and transesterification.

Biodiesel, an alternative to traditional diesel, is essential for the sustainability of long-term energy supplies and often synthesized through a non-alcoholic route called interesterification. The described synthesis method facilitates modification oil fat by exchanging acyl radical groups between triglyceride alcoholic acid (alcoholysis), (acidolysis), or ester (transesterification). Therefore, this research aimed determine effect reactant ratio crude palm (CPO) dimethyl carbonate (DMC),...
