2.2.3. Pretreatment of acidic feedstocks
Many pretreatment methods have been
proposed for reducing the high free fatty acid
content of the oils, including steam distilla-tion
[74], extraction by alcohol [75], and
esterification by acid-catalysis [76]. However,
steam distillation for reducing high free fatty
acids requires a high temperature and has low
efficiency. Be-cause of the limited solubility of
free fatty acids in alcohol, extrac-tion by alcohol
method needs a large amount of solvent and
the process is complicated. Compared with the
two former methods, esterification by acidcatalysis makes the best use of the free fatty
acids in the oil and transforms it into biodiesel
[75,77]. The com-mon pretreatment is
esterification of the FFA with methanol in the
presence of acidic catalysts (usually sulphuric
acid). The cata-lysts can be homogeneous

Cooke et al. [122] used dry
washing by replac-ing the water
with an ion exchange resin or a
magnesium silicate powder in
order to remove impurities. These
two dry washing methods can
bring the free glycerol level down
and is reasonably effective for
removing soaps. Both the ion
exchange process and the
magnesol process have the
advantage of being waterless
and thus eliminate many of the
problems
outlined
above.
Although the magnesol process
has a better effect on the removal
of metha-nol than the ion resins,

[131] stated that most people in the

[54].
Generally, biodiesel standards identify
the parameters that pure biodiesel
must meet before being used as a
pure fuel or being blended with
distillate fuels [120,129,130].
To ensure safe operation in diesel
engines, the most important aspects
of the biodiesel product are the
completion of the reaction, the
removal of the free glycerol, residual
catalyst and alcohol, and the absence
of free fatty acids [39,41,42,132]. As

then
triglycer-ides,
diglycerides, or monoglycerides may
be left in the final prod-uct.
Chemically, each of these compounds
contains a glycerol molecule. Fuel
with excessive free glycerol may plug
the fuel filters and cause combustion
problems in the diesel engine.
Therefore, the ASTM standard
requires the total glycerol to be
<0.24% of the final biodiesel product
[54,130]. On the other hand, since
residual meth-anol, even as little as
1%, can lower the flashpoint of the
final bio-diesel product from 170 LC to
<40 LC, the EN 14214 standard limits
the amount of alcohol to a very low
level [86,129]. Finally, although a
specific value for the residual catalyst
is not included in the ASTM standard,
it is limited by the specification on
levels of sulfated ash, which may lead
to engine deposits and high abra-sive
wear levels [42,130].
Because
the
European
specification for sulfur content (i.e. EN
14214) is much tighter than the US
requirement, Ali et al. [133] re-ported
that a number of producers in Europe
are resorting to the

D6751 and EN 14214 standards [129,130].

re-mains
relatively constant with a
further increase in the
reaction time [28,142].
Moreover, excess reaction
time will lead to a reduction in the product yield
due to the backward
reaction of transesterification, resulting in a
loss of esters as well as
causing more fatty acids
to form soaps [143,144].

temperature
Temperature
clearly
influences the reaction
and yield of the bio-diesel
product. A higher reaction
temperature can decrease
the vis-cosities of oils and
result in an increased
reaction rate, and a
shortened reaction time.
However, Leung and Guo
[28] and Eevera et al.
[143] found that when the
