Evaluation and enhancement of cold flow properties of palm oil and its biodiesel

Verma, Puneet; Sharma, M. P.; Dwivedi, Gaurav - In: Energy Reports 2 (2016), pp. 8-13

Cold flow properties are the main issue to regular usage of Palm biodiesel as alternative fuel to diesel. The inferior cold flow property of biodiesel causes gum formation and crystallization of fuel particles which can be enhanced by winterization, blending and addition of cold flow improvers....

Use of Isomerization and Hydroisomerization Reactions to Improve the Cold Flow Properties of Vegetable Oil Based Biodiesel

Reaume, Stephen J.; Ellis, Naoko - In: Energies 6 (2013) 2, pp. 619-633

> emissions. However, the high cloud point of biodiesel must be reduced when used in cold climates. We report on the use of … isomerization and hydroisomerization reactions to reduce the cloud point of eight different fats and oils. Isomerization was carried … tested for cloud point and flow properties, in addition to catalyst reusability and energy requirements. Results showed that …
