Abstract

This research sought to assess the potential of oils obtained from pumpkin; C. maxima and balsam apple, M. balsamina for biodiesel production.

Oils were extracted from the seeds using n-hexane in a soxhlet extractor, then transesterified to biodiesel using single step alkali hydrolysis.

The biodiesel so produced were analyzed for their physicochemical and fuel properties using American Standards for Testing and Materials.

Fatty acid methyl esters yield was measured using GC-MS. Percentage oil yields were 42.13 ± 0.11 % and 33.21 ± 0.18 % for C. maxima and M. balsamina, respectively.

The physicochemical properties of the oils showed high acid values (C. maxima 8.415 ± 0.8 and M. balsamina 9.958 ± 0.5 mg/KOH/g).

Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

There is a need for alternative energy sources to petroleum-based fuels due to the depletion of the world’s petroleum reserves, global warming and environmental concerns caused by exploration of oil.

One possible alternative to fossil fuel is the use of fuels or diesel produced from oils of plant origin like vegetable oils and tree – borne seed oils. These have been found suitable for utilization in diesel engines (Michael and Briggs, 2004).

The concept of using vegetable oil as a fuel dates back to 1895 when Dr. Rudolf Diesel developed the first diesel engine to run on vegetable oil.

Diesel demonstrated his engine at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1900 using peanut oil as fuel. Vegetable oils have long been promoted as possible alternatives for fossil fuel, but it is only in recent years that systematic efforts have been made to utilize vegetable oil-based fuels in engines.

Fuel from these sources is technically feasible, environmentally acceptable, and readily available. Different products from vegetable oil such as pure vegetable oil, mixtures of vegetable oil with petroleum diesel as well as biodiesel have been proposed as useful alternatives (Agarwal, 1998).
