Biodieselanalyzer: An Innovative Software To Predict The Properties Of Prospective Biodiesel

Development of cities and industrial centres have intensified the increasing needs of mankind to energy. Today, there is great interests in the development of controlling methods to introduce new biofuel feedstock meeting the required standard. Information technology (IT) and artificial intelligence bring meaningful achievements in development of these methods; BiodieselAnalyzer software provides significant improvements in order to determine the quality of biodiesel and its combustion characteristics. Methods: BiodieselAnalyzer software in its various versions has made it possible to estimate 16 of the most important quality characteristics of biofuels even before production. So, it does save a lot on evaluation steps of fuel quality characteristics. The prediction done based on the fatty acid methyl ester profile of the any oil feedstock. To determine the percentage of fatty acids in an oil sample the Gas Chromatography was used.
