| Abstract: | This study aims to innovate a long-life and simple reactor made from low-cost materials to continuously and efficiently produce pure biodiesel, which can quickly process and handle large amounts of oils. Consequently, the reactor was designed to efficiently process 150-200 liters per hour and be operated by one person. This study experienced the effects of applying a high-voltage electric field of 5, 10, and 20 kV, high-voltage electrode span distance of 1.5, 3, and 7 cm at three different flow rates of 2, 3, and 4 l/min on biodiesel characteristics, glycerin precipitation rate, and the reactor productivity. The obtained results illustrated that increasing high-voltage electric field value from 5 to 20 kV increased the precipitated amount of glycerin from 715 to 915 ml at 1.5 cm electrode span, increasing electrode span distance from 1.5 to 7 cm decreased glycerin precipitation rate from 500 to 360 ml/min at 20 kV, and by applying 20 kV, and increasing the transesterification flow rate from 2 to 4 l/min the glycerin precipitation rate decreased from 245 to 190 ml/min, from 215 to 180 ml/min, and from 195 to 165 ml/min at the electrode span distance of 1.5, 3, and 7 cm respectively. The optimum reactor operating point was found at 20 kV electric field value, 1.5 cm electrode span distance, and transesterification reaction resulting in a flow rate of 2 l/min. The biodiesel production cost was 16.35 L.E per liter at the optimum reactor operating point. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
