Biodiesel obtained from castor oil has a lower cost compared to the ones obtained\u00a0from other oils, as due its solvability in alcohol transesterification occurs without heating. The use of biodiesel will\u00a0allow a reduction on the consumption of petroleum-derived fuels minimizing the harmful effects on the environment. This work\u00a0wants to provide a thermoanalytical and physical-chemistry characterization of castor oil and biodiesel. Biodiesel was\u00a0obtained with methyl alcohol and characterized through several techniques. Gas chromatography indicated methyl ester content\u00a0of 97.7%. The volatilization of biodiesel starts and finishes under inferior temperatures than the beginning and final\u00a0volatilization temperatures of castor oil. Biodiesel data are very close to the volatilization temperatures of conventional\u00a0diesel.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 24.375px;\"><em>Some interesting links<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 24.375px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.buildingenergyanalytics.com\/blog\/?p=11\">Building Energy Analytics<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 24.375px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/weird.gallery\/crazy-and-weird-stuff-with-solar-power\/\">Some Innovative &amp; Unique Solar Power<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>See details of a project on &#8221; \u00a0Thermoanalytical Characterization of Castor Oil Biodiesel&#8221; presented at ScienceDirect in Nov 2005 By: Marta M.
