الوصف: Presently, biodiesel offers a sustainable and renewable substitute for exhausting fossil fuels such as Petro-diesel. Large scale production of biodiesel could lead to positive outcomes in terms of environmental quality by reducing greenhouse gasses emission and Societal-Economic development. Hence, this research work focused on biodiesel synthesis from novel and non-edible seed oil of Monotheca buxifolia using green nano-particles of calcium oxide synthesized with aqueous leaves extract of Boerhavia procumbens. Advanced techniques like X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Energy diffraction X-Ray (EDX) were used to characterize calcium oxide nano-particles. High yield of biodiesel (95%) was obtained at optimum reaction conditions such as methanol to oil molar ratio of 9:1, catalyst loading 0.83 (wt.%), reaction time 180 min and temperature 85 °C. Gas Chromatography/Mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) analysis of biodiesel revealed four distinct peaks of methyl esters. Results of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) confirmed the formation of methyl esters in biodiesel sample. Fuel properties of biodiesel such as density (0.821 kg/m3), viscosity (5.35 mm2/s), cloud point (-8 ◦C), pour point (-9 ◦C) and flash point (95 ◦C) were found equivalent to international ASTM D-6571, EN 14,214 and China GB/T 20828–2007 standards. It was finally concluded that Monotheca buxifolia is a highly potential, eco-friendly, and cheaper biomass feedstock for biodiesel production.
