Opis

The data covered in this book is taken from author's MPhil dissertation entitled "Application of response surface methodology for optimization of biodiesel production by transesterification of Carthamus tinctorius cv. thori-78," from Department of Plant Sciences, Faculty of Biological Sciences, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad, Pakistan. The plant source used for biodiesel optimization, transesterification and production was novel. The physico-chemical properties satisfy well the ASTM and EN Standards. The methodology provides guidance about soxhlet and mechanical pressing for oil extraction from non-edible/seed sources. The book will also be a reference tool for new researchers.
