It presents methods based on fluorescence spectroscopy, which are less time-consuming than the traditional Rancimat analysis for monitoring stability, and are therefore less prone to allowing oxidative decay in the biofuel. Biodiesel exploits a variety of raw materials, from freshly harvested cottonseed to recycled cooking oil. These are cheap to produce and generate fuel lower in polluting sulfur and aromatic compounds than its petroleum-based equivalent.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; color: #222222; background: white;\"\u003eBeginning by addressing different protocols for synthesis based on fatty acids, methyl and ethyl esters, it then describes chemical analyses essential to establishing the purity of the biodiesel. It highlights in detail the use of multifunctional and synthetic antioxidants, and investigates the impact of synthetic chalcones and their derivatives on the oxidative stability of biodiesel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; color: #222222; background: white;\"\u003eThe author goes on to explain how to ameliorate various influences—UV irradiation and metal contaminants for example—which increase the hazards of oxidation, such as degradation and instability. New pre-treatment procedures performed using ultrasonic energies, thermostatic bath and vortex stirring are not only more environmentally friendly, but cut down on the time-consuming process of determining metal content, and allow for the use of more environmentally friendly aqueous reagents. This book investigates and demonstrates these techniques on the basis of real-world results.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; color: #222222; background: white;\"\u003eFurther, it suggests the practical uses of byproducts of biodiesel production, for example, using glycerol as a source of energy and high valuable chemicals.
