Zusammenfassung: | Biodiesel as an alternative diesel fuel obtained by transesterification of vegetable fats and oils, using alcohol in the presence of a catalyst, has some advantages such as reduced emissions of unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, sulfates, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and particular matter, but its drawback, of being more prone to oxidation than petroleum-based diesel fuel, can cause the fuel to become acidic (cause fuel system corrosion) and to form insoluble gums and sediments and consequently increase its viscosity. In this study, in order to increase the stability of biodiesel based on high oleic acid sunflower oil against oxidation process during the storage and distribution, different percents [0.01%, 0.02%, 0.05%, 0.1%, and 0.2% (w/v)] of maize flour contaminated by mycotoxins, thus useless for human consumption, were added as natural antioxidants. The antioxidant effect increased with concentration up to an optimal level. Above the optimal level, the increase in antioxidant effect with its concentration was relatively small. Oxidative stability of biodiesel was determined using two parallel methods, the Schaal oven storage test (at 70°C) and the Rancimat method (at 110°C). The induction times obtained by the Rancimat method were more similar to the values determined by the oven test. The highest protective effect was observed in samples containing 0.1% (w/ v) of added antioxidants.
Biodiesel, como el combustible diesel alternativo, obtenido por la transesterificación de las grasas y aceites vegetales, utilizando el alcohol en la presencia de catalizador, tiene algunas ventajas, como la disminuida descarga de los hidratos de carburo no combustidos, monóxido de carbón, compuestos de azufre, carbohidratos policíclicos aromáticos, y otras materias, pero también tiene una desventaja, que es de ser más sensible a oxidación que el combustible diesel, originado del petróleo. La oxidación influye en el incremento de acidez del combustible (causa la corrosión en el sistema de combustible) y forma un sedimento insoluble, con lo que se incrementa la viscosidad del mismo. Para incrementar la estabilidad del biodiesel originado del girasol de alto contenido oleico en cuanto a la oxidación, durante el almacenamiento y transporte, en esta investigación íbamos añadiendo diferentes porcentajes [0,01%, 0,02%, 0,05%, 0,1%, y 0,2%] de harina de maíz, infectado por micotoxinas, y por lo tanto inútil para la alimentación humana, como antioxidante natural.
