Abstract


Biodiesel is a promising renewable energy source due to its comparable properties with petroleum diesel and is reported to be friendly environmental. One way to prepare affordable biodiesel is through the transesterification of waste cooking oil. Utilization of biodiesel from waste cooking oil need low cost of production and give a great profit. This paper aims to investigate the synthesis of biodiesel using potassium hydroxide catalyzed transesterification of waste cooking oil in a continuously stirred thank reactor and the performance evaluation of biodiesel-petroleum diesel blend to fuel an unmodified diesel engine. The optimum conditions for the transesterification were at 60oC using a catalyst loading of 2% wt. of waste cooking oil. The biodiesel obtained from this work has met the existing Indonesian regulatory standards for biodiesel. Based on the consumption, acceleration, and opacity tests, up to 10% volume substitution of petroleum diesel with biodiesel can satisfactorily fuel diesel engines without modification.
