Jatropha Oil
It is also used as a house plant. The oil from Jatropha carcass is
mainly converted into biodiesel for use in diesel engines. The cake
resulting from oil extraction, a protein-rich product, can be used
for fish or animal feeds.
This research work is about the production of biodiesel from
jatropha oil. Other oils can also be used for the production, but
jatropha was chosen because it is not edible therefore, it will not
pose a problem to humans in terms of food competition. Before the
transesterification process was carried out, some basic tests such
as free fatty acid content, iodine value, and moisture content were
carried out. This was done so as to ascertain quality yield of the
biodiesel after the reaction.
