da Silva, Juliana Quierati published the artcileLight biodiesel from macaub́a and palm kernel: Properties of their blends with fossil kerosene in the perspective of an alternative aviation fuel, Quality Control of 111-11-5, the main research area is biodiesel Acrocomia aculeate blend fossil kerosene fuel property.
Oil either from macaub́a (Acrocomia aculeate) and palm (Elaeis guineensis) fruit kernel was transesterified with methanol through the classical reaction with homogeneous alk. catalyst. The produced fatty acid Me esters (FAME) were further fractionated via atm. distillation as a step to obtain enriched fractions in short-mol. chain esters, ranging from C8 to C14, in a perspective to be blended with the conventional mineral jet fuel (Jet A-1). In this report, such blends of light biodiesels with Jet A-1 kerosene are described for their d., distillation fractions according to the temperature, structure changes under thermal treatments, by thermogravimetry and differential calorimetry analyses, f.p., flash point, and calorific value. The blends corresponding to 5, 10 and 20 vol% in enriched short-chain esters with kerosene revealed values well within the recommended limits by the ASTM D1655. Light biodiesels, which are rich in lauric acid (C12:0) Me esters are suitable to be blended with the Jet A-1 kerosene up to at least 5 vol%. Those blends could produce virtually very similar fuels, regarding the main tech. standard properties, to the conventional fossil kerosene for jet engines, particularly concerning the moisture content, the d., its behavior in distillation and the flash point.
Renewable Energy published new progress about Biodiesel fuel. 111-11-5 belongs to class esters-buliding-blocks, name is Methyl octanoate, and the molecular formula is C9H18O2, Quality Control of 111-11-5.
