Abstract

Biomass resource is used to produce biodiesel which is an alternative renewable fuel. Physiochemical properties of biodiesel are very much close to the petroleum diesel fuel. This work deals with the study of transesterification for obtaining biodiesel from Used Temple Oil (UTO). To find the optimum yield of Used Temple Methyl Ester (UTOME) Taguchi methodology was selected. Under the influence of molar ratio, catalyst and reaction time ANOVA analysis have conducted. The result of this study in a maximum yield of UTOME as 94.51% with the optimal conditions of molar ratio 6:1 with 1.15 % by weight of NaOH at 95 minutes. On the basis of “larger is better†the yield was analyzed.
