MEASURING THE LIGHT CRUDE OIL (LCO) CONTENT IN STANDARD BIODIESEL/LCO BLENDS BY THERMAL ANALYSIS

The goal of the present study was to determine the potential use of thermal analysis for the measurement of the light crude oil (LCO) content of standard biodiesel mixtures. Standard samples of biodiesel/LCO blends were prepared with different ratios of biodiesel; LCO: 1:0 (biodiesel only), 1:3, 1:1...
