The need for fossil fuels and the emissions generated from these are increasing daily.Researchers concerned with global warming as well climate change; energy sustainability material usages important issues today.Waste cooking oil (WCO) can be processed into biodiesel an alternative fuel to replace diesel.Production of using WCO feedstock has been growing interest last two decades.A number research papers related improvements in production, raw materials catalyst selection have...
The production of activated carbon from agricultural waste is one the most environmental-friendly solutions by converting into valuable material. In this study, Areca catechu husk converted to remove methylene blue (MB) dye in aqueous solution. This Catechu was impregnated with phosphoric acid (H3PO4) an ultrasonic bath for 30 minutes activate a pore surface before undergo carbonization at temperature 700 ℃ 2 hours. physicochemical properties characterized ash content, moisture bulk density,...
Antioxidants play critical roles in cellular defence mechanisms both enzymatic and non-enzymatic forms within the intracellular extracellular environments. While microalgae are recognised as a rich source of antioxidants, limited information is available on species native to Peninsular Malaysia that contain high antioxidant capacity for future applications. This study aimed assess antioxidants microalgae, particularly those cultivated locally Malaysia, which still scarce. Nineteen collected...
The use of waste cooking oil (WCO) as feedstock and in microwave heating technology helps to reduce the cost biodiesel.In this study, a continuous flow transesterification by irradiation for biodiesel production using calcium oxide (CaO) aheterogeneous catalyst, calcined from cockle shells, is used.The catalyst was packed inside plastic perforated container mounted on stirrer shaft inserted reactor.The thermocouple reactor connected temperature controller power input maintain...
The use of Waste Cooking Oil (WCO) as feedstock, and microwave heating technology are favored to reduce the cost biodiesel. In order identify effect using biodiesel from WCO Methyl Ester (WCOME) blends on diesel engine emissions performance, WCOME were tested in a single-cylinder Direct Injection (DI) at constant speed 2500 rpm with five loads. For comparison, commercial fuel, Petron Diesel Max (PDM), mixture palm oil (POME) also used. performance emission test results fuels: PDM, BP10,...
In general, the Rooftop PV Panel installation only considers power capacity to be installed and available roof area. It does not consider type of material where it is installed. Meanwhile, house has absorption sunlight different thermal properties depending on roofing material. this study, objective research observe temperature characteristics between solar panels roofs from 2 types materials, namely clay tile ceramic tile, influence height panel ceiling its effect efficiency panel. Based...
