- Abstract
A novel method as proposed in the production of Calophyllum inophyllum biodiesel has been investigated experimentally. This study reports the results of biodiesel processing with electromagnetic induction technology. The applied method is aimed to compare the results of Calophyllum inophyllum biodiesel processing among conventional, microwave and electromagnetic induction. The degumming, transesterification, and esterification process of the 3 methods are measured by stopwatch to obtain time comparison data. Characteristics of viscosity, density, and fatty acid metil ester (FAME) are obtained from testing of a Gas Chromatography-mass Spectrometry (GCMS) at the Integrated Research and Testing Laboratory, Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta. The results present that the biodiesel produced by this method satisfies the biodiesel standards and their characteristics are better than the biodiesel produced by conventional and microwave methods. The electromagnetic induction method also offers a fast and easy route to produce biodiesel with the advantage of increasing the reaction rate and improving the separation process compared to other methods. This advanced technology has the potential to significantly increase biodiesel production with considerable potential to reduce production time and costs.
