Biodiesel Production & Comparison Of Fuel Properties From Waste Beef Fat By Pyrolysis & Transesterification Methods

Abstract

The present-day global warming around the world is due to the usage of fossil fuels in many industrial applications especially in the transportation sector. The need of the hour is to find an alternate for fossil fuel by replacing it with biodiesel made up of animal’s waste fat. By the pyrolysis and transesterification method`s the beef fat was converted into a biodiesel with acidic and base environment. Produced biodiesel was tested with the help of ASTM standards with the fossil fuel physicochemical properties. The current study presents a commercial alternative to lessen the ecological impact of waste animal (beef) fat while also providing an environmentally beneficial answer to the global issue of air pollution.
