Abstract
The purpose of this research is to study the biodiesel production from crude Hevea Brasiliensis oil by using heterogeneous catalyst via microwave irradiation method. The potential of using high free fatty acids (FFA) of Hevea Brasiliensis oil (RSO) as a biodiesel fuels with the aid of heterogeneous from waste Anadara Granosa (cockle shell) using microwave irradiation method. The two-step esterification-transesterification process reduces the acid value of RSO from 104.7 mgKOH/g total acid number to catalyst 0.46 mgKOH/g. The optimum yield of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) was reached up to 93.47% under optimal conditions of 9:1 methanol molar ratio, catalyst loading of 7 wt% oil, 7 minutes of reaction time and 400 watt microwave power input. All fuel properties were analysed according to the ASTM D6751 standard and found within the requirements.
