The initial conversion of acidic waste cooking oil converted to biodiesel by KOH/corncobsderived activated carbon (AC) catalyst at 45 • C dropped by 5% after catalyst lost its stability after 5 cycles [454] and the catalytic activity of waste eggshell which yields 95.12% in first cycle and 93.30 in third cycle [455].
The first step of our biodiesel process is the collection of used cooking oil. A large amount of oil comes from commercial fryers at local restaurants, food processors, and any business that serves food, as well as home kitchens. All kinds of cooking oil can be used, including soy, vegetable, canola, and animal fats.
It is also estimated that India can supplement 41.14% of its total diesel fuel consumption, if resources like waste cooking oil and other bio wastes were used as raw material for biodiesel production . Biodiesel can be processed from different mechanisms.
In order to make it safe, cooking oil goes through a process called transesterification. Transesterification is the chemical process that transforms waste oil into diesel fuel. It’s a long name for a relatively simple concept. During this process, we combine an ester with an alcohol.
