Pb-232 Direct production of liquid fuel from rice bran powder by using super-heated methanol gas method

Abstract

This paper described the feasibility of the direct production of liquid fuel from rice bran powder by using super-heated methanol gas method. From the experimental result it was shown that FAME peaks were identified in the extracted liquid by gas chromatography. This suggests that it is possible to reduce the energy consumed in production of biodiesel fuel and to utilize the unused biomass by present process.
