Laboratory Study on Ricinus communis for Biodiesel Production Feasibility

This study evaluates the technical feasibility of using Ricinus communis (castor bean) as a raw material for biodiesel production. It aims to characterize the properties of Ricinus communis, assess its oil yield, and determine the quality of biodiesel produced per industry standards. By analyzing viscosity, neutralization values, density, and ester content, the research confirms that biodiesel obtained from this species meets current quality regulations. The results highlight the potential of Ricinus communis as a viable biodiesel resource.
