Abstract

Biodiesel from jatropha oil was manufactured and the strength in lubricity, percentages of methyl esters as well as the functional groups present were analysed using high frequency reciprocating rig (HFRR), gas chromatograph-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) and Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR) techniques respectively. The results of the analysis indicated that manufactured biodiesel has the average wear scan value of 239 µm which is in line with the acceptable limit wear scan value stated in petroleum diesel standards EN 590 and ASTM D975. The percentages of methyl esters before and after manufactured biodiesel were in total of 10.6% and 96.2% respectively. The 96.2% content of methyl ester was also in line with the acceptable EN biodiesel standards. The physico-chemical properties of manufactured biodiesel was also carried out. The results were in agreement with the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard for sulphur content, viscosity, cetane number, acid value, colour and specific gravity.
