Impact of the Chemical Composition of Oil for Biodiesel Production to Reduce Environmental Pollution

The primary motivation for researching biofuels is to meet the world’s energy requirements. Demand for fossil fuels is rising significantly due to population expansion. Biodiesel is a promising renewable energy source that, if implemented effectively, has the potential to reduce the dependency on fossil fuels. Because biodiesel is a cleaner fuel that requires no engine modification, its implementation is not complicated. It can directly be used in diesel engines or as a blended diesel with fossil diesel. Seven different vegetable oils were utilized to replicate restaurant waste cooking oil in the laboratory to make biodiesel. The qualities of biodiesel produced were investigated and compared to determine how they vary depending on the chemical composition of the oil source. The physical appearance of biodiesel varies slightly depending on the oil source. Density, kinematic viscosity, flash point, and acid levels, on the other hand, are all within acceptable biodiesel criteria for all types of oil sources used
