  Abstract

Biodiesel is a fatty acid alkyl ester produced by chemical reaction of a vegetable oil or animal fat and an alcohol. It is getting attention as a clean alternative energy that can replace gas oils. In this study, strong acidic ion exchange resin was introduced in the pretreatment process of the used cooking oil and rapeseed oil to enhance the conversion of the oil to the biodiesel by removing FFA(free fatty acid). More than 90% FFA was removed. Dry resins showed higher FFA removal efficiency than wet resins. Using transesterification the conversion of triglyceride into fatty acid methyl ester ws raised up to 98%. These results can be applicable to the preteratment of biodiesel feedstocks having high acidic value.
