| Abstract | In this study, waste cooking oil (WCO) was used as a raw material to produce biodiesel oil using the pilot plant-scale solar reactor for the local community in Thailand. The obtained biodiesel oil sample was purified, analyzed, and characterized by several techniques such as Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR), Gas Chromatography (GC), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The experimental results revealed that the pilot plant-scale solar reactor for the local community could produce the percentage yield of biodiesel oil from WCO up to 86.25?1.58%. In addition, the purity of biodiesel product in terms of the fatty acid methylester %FAME content was more than 97% confirmed by the 1H-NMR and GC analysis technique under the optimum reaction conditions of methanol to oil molar ratio of 6:1, NaOH loading amount of 0.5 wt.% compared with the weight of oil, reaction temperature about 60 ? 5?C, and the reaction time of 1 h. The fuel properties of the synthesized biodiesel oil were within the standard for liquid biofuel. Furthermore, the laboratory testing and field testing of the produced biodiesel oil against the small diesel engine indicated that biodiesel oil derived from a pilot plant-scale solar reactor has excellent quality and efficiency comparable to the conventional diesel oil of B10 and B20 with considerable differences of less than 5%. All experimental results concluded that the pilot plant-scale solar reactor was another possible alternative to produce liquid biofuel for practical use with a small agricultural diesel engine in the rural area of Thailand. |
