Özet

In this study, the fuel characteristics of biodiesel produced from jojoba [Simmondsia chinensis (Link)Schneider] oil and biodiesel obtained from the jojoba oil procured under laboratory conditions werecompared. For this purpose, jojoba seed endosperm and oil, which was attained from the jojobaendosperm calli via soxhlet extraction, was obtained. Biodiesel was produced from this oil via thetransesterification method. It was determined that the fuel characteristics of the biodiesels produced fromthe oil procured under the laboratory conditions and the oil attained from the seeds were close to eachother, and it was observed that the other features were in parallel with the standards, except for theviscosity and freeze point. This research study offers a solution for the raw material problem, which isone of the most important obstacles against the widespread use of biodiesel, in terms of environmentaland economic aspects.
