EXTRACTION OF BIO DIESEL FROM

COMMIPHORA WIGHTII AND

CASSIA FISTULA.
Abstract
In recent years, there has been a steadily increasing in the amount of
solid wastes because of the increasing human population and
urbanization. Solids are includes industrial waste, agricultural waste, forest
waste and waste bio-products.

Bio-energy has been produced total 10% participation of energy of

global energy production, energy produced from the source of biomass:
plants, animal, and organic waste.

In some seed like COMMIPHORA WIGHTII seed, CASSIA FISTULA Seed

oil prepared and blended with together to produce the biodiesel and to
check the performance of the biodiesel.

The study also includes examination of physical and chemical properties

such as pH value, viscosity, density, flash point, fire point and acid values
on the produced biodiesel as well as on the conventional diesel for
comparison. The study revealed that the properties of the bio-diesel are
very close to the conventional diesel.
PROCESS FLOW
SELECTION OF SEED
• COMMIPHORA WIGHTII
• CASSIA FISTULA
Biodiesel production
 MOST IMPORTANT ALCOHOLS USED IN BIODIESEL
PRODUCTION

• Methanol. Most widely used, in spite of its

toxicity. It is a substance of petrochemical
origin.
• Ethanol. Less used, requires more complex
production technology and the reaction
speeds are lower. It can be produced from
biomass.

Methanol
 OIL MIXING RATIO FROM SEED
• Ethanol - 5%
• Methanol - 5%
• Oil - 90%
 TESTING
Oil test
• Performance test
• Emission test
 APPLICATION
• Automobile components
 BENEFITS OF BIODIESEL
• Biodiesel is a good lubricant about 66% better
than petro diesel
• Biodiesel produce less smoke and particulate
maters as it is free of sulphur and aromatics.
• Biodiesel has higher cetane number having well
anti knocking property.
• Produce lower carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon
emissions.
• Bio-diesel is renewable, biodegradable and non-
toxic.
