BIODIESEL: A POTENTIAL RENEWABLE FUEL? 1. Introduction. The American philosopher, ecologist and scientist, Aldo Leopold introduced in his book ‘A Sand County Almanac’ in 1949 the idea of ‘thinking like a mountain’. This basic and simple phrase was later analysed and further explored by environmentalist philosopher Arne Naess. He stated that thinking like a mountain consisted mainly in realizing that humans are part of the biosphere, therefore, mankind should be able to recognize several responsibilities

Recommendations Report for Challenge the Era Company, Kuwait 1.0 Introduction Challenge the Era Company (CEC) are exploring the opportunity to establish the first biodiesel production facility in Kuwait. Despite the low cost of fuel in the region, environmental pressures plus the no local disposal route for feedstock Used Cooking Oil (UCO) would allow a viable venture to be established. There have been some biofuel developments in the region, specifically in Dubai and Egypt. In both locations

EXPERIMENT NO. 6 LIPIDS I NUR 4 GROUP 9 POLICARPIO, JOHN PAUL (A & B) QUERUBIN, KIMBERLY (C & D) QUILALA, REGENE (E & F1) RAMOS, PRACCEDES (F2a & F2b) SABALDICCA, VENZ (F2c & F2d) INTRODUCTION Lipids are organic compounds found in living organisms that are insoluble or slightly soluble in water but soluble in non-polar organic solvents. Lipids can be classified into four groups which are -fats, oils, and waxes, -compound lipids, -steroids, and -derived lipids. Various

Glycerol standard sample was given to the class. One sample of 3 ml Triglyceride reagent was heated at 37°C for 5 minutes, then mixed with 30 µl of Bos taurus homogenate and incubated for 10 more minutes at the same temperature. Absorbance of the glycerol standard and homogenates were measured, and converted to concentration of glycerol (Clendening). ( A520 homogenate / A520 of the standard ) x 2.5 mg/ml glycerol The average triglyceride amount for each

Hexokinase and glucokinase are similar enzymes found in different parts of the body. These enzymes are used to regulate glucose levels in the blood. Glucose is the only nutrient which feed the brain, making fundamental in a diet. Glucose is derived from carbohydrates, and carbohydrates are the main source of nutrients. Once, carbohydrates are broken down into single molecules of glucose. Hexokinase and glucokinase assists in the metabolism of glucose through a process known as glycolysis. Glycolysis

A biofuels is a fuel that is produced through biological processes, such as agriculture rather than a fuel produced by geological processes. Hence a biofuel is a fuel which is gained from the living matter. A biofuel is a hydrocarbon that is made from a living organism hence we humans end up using this to power something. In a short amount of time, if a hydrogen fuel is produced from organic matter hence this is known as a biofuel being produced. Biodiesel is an fuel which is similar to fossil

study is to produce succinic acid from glycerol residue through anaerobic fermentation process. The study of reaction parameters (pH, temperature and mass substrate) was performed by using expert design software in glycerol recovery process. One factor at one time (OFAT) method was performed as preliminary studies for selection of parameters range and subsequently determine its optimum condition using response surface methodology (RSM). The concentration of glycerol and succinic acid were determined using

The impact of carbonyl compounds on the cardiovascular system In addition to nicotine, e-cigarettes emit other potentially harmful constituents like carbonyls that result from thermal degradation of propylene glycol and glycerol; which are the most commonly used solvents in e-liquids [PMCID: PMC5226727]. Several studies reported that aerosols from these devices contain significant levels of carbonyls, including various aldehydes; such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde and acrolein. [PMID: 23467656],
