description | Self-sufficiency in energy requirement is critical to the success of any developing economy. Apart from the search for alternatives, there is a need to achieve energy independence, directing much focus on biofuels. Biodiesel is simple to use, biodegradable, nontoxic, and essentially free of sulfur and aromatics. Oil was extracted from the seeds of
Blighia unijugata
and
Luffa cylindrica
, subjected to chemical characterization and biodiesel production. The oil yield from the seed of
B. unijugata
was 50.82 ± 1.20% while that of
L. cylindrica
was 39.10 ± 0.20%. The biodiesel produced had ester content above 98%. The flash point of the biodiesel from
B. unijugata
and
L. cylindrica
was above 120°C while the phosphorus content was also below 1 ppm in both cases. The oxidative stability of
B. unijugata
was 44.30 ± 0.30 h, while that of
L. cylindrica
was lower than this value due to its high unsaturation. The copper strip corrosion value of the biodiesel was also found to be 1A. This study showed that the high free fatty acid content of
B. unijugata and L. cylindrica
seed oil can be reduced in a one-step pretreatment of esterification reaction using H
2
SO
4
as catalyst thus reducing the problem of soap formation encountered when using oil with high free fatty acid for the production of biodiesel. |
