CONCLUSIONS
From the development and evaluation of PKO biodiesel study, the following conclusions can be drawn:
•
The transesterification process using 100g PKO, 20.0g ethanol, 1.0% KOH (by weight of PKO) at 60 C reaction temperature and 90 minutes reaction time yielded 95.4g PKO biodiesel.
•
At 15.56 C, specific gravity of PKO biodiesel is 1.033958 times that of fossil diesel.
•
At 40 C, the PKO biodiesel had 85.06% reduction of viscosity over its raw vegetable oil.
•
Higher pour (2 C), cloud (6 C) and flash (167 C) points were obtained for the PKO biodiesel compared to -12 C, -16 C and 74 C respectively obtained for D2.
The limited fuel characterization carried out demonstrated that the PKO biodiesel produced can successfully fuel a diesel engine
