Synthesis of Biodiesel from Castor Oil: Silent versus Sonicated Methylation and Energy Studies

Posted on April 15, 2015 by Gayathri

Researchers from Spain conducted an experiment to compare conventional ancastor oil biodieseld ultrasound-assisted transesterification for the production of biodiesel from castoroil. The results showed that sonicated transesterification leads to higher castoroil methyl ester yield.

The energy required along each type of transesterification was measured which showed that sonicated transesterification consumes lower amount of energy than conventional one.
