Oxidation Stability of Biodiesel

Oxidation stability of biodiesel is an important issue because fatty acid derivatives are more sensitive to oxidative degradation than mineral fuel. The vegetable oil, fats and their biodiesel suffer with the drawback of deterioration of its quality during long term storage unlike petroleum diesel due to large number of environmental and other factors making the fuel stability and quality questionable. There are various types of stabilities like oxidation, storage and thermal, playing key roles in making th
