Production of biodiesel form Jatropha curcas seed oil

This study was carried out to produce biodiesel from freshly harvested Jatropha curcus (J. curcus) seed oil. J. curcus seeds has high oil content (40%), the free fatty acids ranged between 1.6 - 1.75 %, peroxide value was 2.6 meq/kg, moisture content in crude oil was (0.2 -0.3%) and the saponificati...
