Valorization of indigenous Millettia ferruginea seed oil for biodiesel production: parametric optimization, physicochemical characterization, engine performance and emission characteristics

The current investigation aimed to synthesis the biodiesel from an indigenous Millettia ferruginea seed oil (MFO) using methanol with alkali catalyst (NaOH). The factors affecting the oil extraction viz., extraction time, kernel size, solvent: solid, extraction temperature) was optimized via the par...
