Effect of fatty acid composition of soybean oil on deposit and performance of plant oil pressure stoves

Kratzeisen, M.; Müller, J. - In: Renewable Energy 34 (2009) 11, pp. 2461-2466

Plant oil as household energy could be a sustainable and locally available alternative for fossil fuel. However, the use of pure plant oil in pressure stoves leads to deposit in the vaporizer. Therefore, objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the degree of unsaturation of plant...

Higher heating value (HHV) of vegetable oils, fats and biodiesels evaluation based on their pure fatty acids' HHV

Fassinou, Wanignon Ferdinand - In: Energy 45 (2012) 1, pp. 798-805

Higher heating value (HHV) is an important property of a fuel, especially for vegetable oils, fats and their derivatives which are intended to replace petroleum fuels. There are lots of methods to evaluate the HHV of a fuel. In this paper, the HHV of vegetable oils, fats and their derivatives...

Fatty acids composition as a means to estimate the high heating value (HHV) of vegetable oils and biodiesel fuels

Fassinou, Wanignon Ferdinand; Sako, Aboubakar; Fofana, … - In: Energy 35 (2010) 12, pp. 4949-4954

High heating value (HHV) is an important property which characterises the energy content of a fuel such as solid, liquid and gaseous fuels. The previous assertion is particularly important for vegetable oils and biodiesels fuels which are expected to replace fossil oils. Estimation of the HHV of...

Effect of different irrigation volumes during fruit development on quality of virgin olive oil of cv. Frantoio

Caruso, Giovanni; Gucci, Riccardo; Urbani, Stefania; … - In: Agricultural Water Management 134 (2014) C, pp. 94-103

An experiment was carried out in a high-density olive (Olea europaea L. cv. Frantoio) orchard to determine the effect of different irrigation regimes (full, deficit, complementary) on virgin olive oil (VOO) quality over three consecutive years. Irrigation had negligible effects on free acidity,...

Is the productive performance of olive trees under localized irrigation affected by leaving some roots in drying soil?

Morales-Sillero, A.; García, J.M.; Torres-Ruiz, J.M.; … - In: Agricultural Water Management 123 (2013) C, pp. 79-92

Localized irrigation, which wets a part of the root zone only, is widely used in olive orchards. The effect of partial wetting of the root zone on plant performance is unknown. The aim of this work was to compare fruit and oil yields in olive trees under localized irrigation (LI treatment) to...
