The effect of different washing processes on fuel properties in camelina methyl ester
The present study was conducted to examine the effect of different washing processes on fuel properties in biodiesel produced from camelina oil through transesterification. For this purpose, dry washing with Magnesol, washing with Na2SO4, washing with water, and unwashing methods were compared. In dry washing with Magnesol, density, KV, CP, CFPP, PP, FP, and heating value (HV) were found to be 0.887 g/cm(3), 5.090 mm(2)/s, 1 degrees C, -4 degrees C, -7 degrees C, 165 degrees C, and 41 MJ/kg, respectively. The effect of flash point (FP), density and kinematic viscosity (KV) on heating value (HV) was investigated and the regression among these values was determined. The r(2) was 0.953 and corrected r(2) was found to be 0.810. The effect of cloud point (CP), CFPP, and kinematic viscosity (KV) on PP (pour point) values was examined and the regression among these values was determined. The r(2) was found to be 0.999 and corrected r(2) was found to be 0.995.
