Determining the Oxidation Stability of Biodiesel Produced from High Stability Oils

项目名称：	Determining the Oxidation Stability of Biodiesel Produced from High Stability Oils
摘要：	High stability oils have recently received significant interest because they are healthier oils and have improved commercial frying performance. The increased adoption of the high stability oils will ultimately result in their use as feedstocks for biodiesel production. Several high stability oils, with varying compositions, are commercially available; however, the effect of the feedstock composition on the biodiesel composition and properties is unknown. This project will investigate the effect of oil composition on biodiesel properties, specifically fuel stability. It is hypothesized that a higher oxidation stability of the parent oil will result in improved fuel stability, but no systematic studies have been reported. The long term goal of this work is to develop a multi-investigator team analyzing fuel production and fuel performance/emissions from stationary and onboard engines. This approach would provide a feedstock to tailpipe study of alternative fuels, consistent with the Transportation Research Institute's (TRI) vision.
