Hi. I would like to ask about a project I am currently working on.
This is about obtaining the yield of the mixture at the varying amounts of catalyst and methanol volume for biodiesel production.
Is it possible to obtain different values for yield of mixture for a 4g:60mL combination in three trials? If yes, what could be the factors for that? Does temperature play a major role for that?
Unfortunately, You didn't describe the reaction, the catalyst and the apparatus You are using. Temperature always has a bg effect on catalytic reaction. But there. are much more parameters influencing the reactions results.
Hello. Yes, I have read from some articles that temperature and physical state of the catalyst are factors in the varying values obtained from yield of mixture. I think that will be a good startup. I am using KOH as my catalyst.
"The yield of the mixture" does not sound like a scientific term. What is the "mixture" in biodiesel production?
"Is it possible to obtain different values for yield of mixture for a 4g:60mL combination in three trials?" Surely possible. This is commonly known as a lack of reproducibility. Science starts from reproducibility. You can't proceed further without a reasonable reproducibility
Yurii V Geletii yield of mixture extracted when the amount of catalyst is combined with a methanol volume for biodiesel production at varying concentrations.
Thank you so much for the inputs and clarifications. I'll take note of them.
all parameters have influence, try and will see, I am sorry, but the characteristic of the feedstock, reaction conditions, reversibility circumstances, intensity of mixing, temperature, etc. must be taken into consideration
