Abstract

Used vegetable oil methyl ester (UVOME) was derived through transesterification using used vegetable oil (UVO) and methanol with NaOH or KOH catalysts. Various proportions were tested and the biodiesel yields (BN using NaOH and BK using KOH) were compared. Maximum yield (87%) of UVOME was achieved using KOH. Higher methanol and catalyst concentrations increased yields. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
