Pembuatan Biodiesel dari Mesokarp Buah Sawit dengan Metode Reactive Extraction Menggunakan Katalis Enzim Novozym ® 435

Abstract

Reactive extraction can be used as a method of making biodiesel with the acquisition of high yield levels , low production costs , the reaction time efficiency and reduce the use of excess reagent , thus producing biodiesel pretty good . In this experiment , the extraction reaction is used to generate bodiesel of mesocarp oil using dimethyl carbonate and 435 novozym as enzymatic catalysts . Methanol is not used as a solvent because it is believed to inhibit the enzyme . The variables studied include a reaction temperature of about 65 OC reaction time is done continuously ( 4,8,12,16,20,24 hours ) . Results biodiesel content in a can of 88.1324 % , 0.3132 % monodigliserida levels , the levels of 1.7565 % diglycerides and triglycerides 2,3212 %make biodiesel obtained quite large .
