Abstract
A study was made of the transesterification reaction of soybean oil by means of
methanol, using sodium hydroxide as catalyst. Under the same experiment
parameters: alcohol/oil ratio 15% (15g / 100g), catalyst concentration 0.5 wt % ,
stirring speeds 500rpm, reaction temperature 70℃, reaction time 2 hours, the
conductivity, pH value and transmittance of reactants were measured continuously
during transesterification. The results revealed that transmittance could be taken
as an indicator to estimate the conversion rate of fatty acid methylesters (FAME or
biodiesel). The relationship between transmission coefficient and conversion rate
of biodiesel can be described by where y is the conversion rate of biodiesel and x is the transmission coefficient
of reactant defined within 0.409~0.522.
This equation can be a reference for on-line monitor for biodiesel production.
