- Utilization of Waste Cooking Oil (WCO) and Fresh Palm Dregs (FPD) in The Making Of Biodiesel Using In Situ Transesterification Process (Warni Fatimah, 2014, 69 pages, 31 tables, 25 pictures, 4 enclosure) Waste Cooking oil and fresh dregs palm waste are not utilized well yet. However, the waste cooking oil still has high levels of fat (triglycerides) more over oil fresh palm dregs still contain residual oil presses can be used as raw material for biodiesel. This research used in-situ transesterification method, which is simple step in producing biodiesel by extraction and purification oil. Levels of Free Fatty Acids mixture of WCO and FPD is 1.61% This research was conducted to how the effect of catalyst concentration and composition variations of WCO and FPD in weight percent (25:75; 40:60; 50:50; 60:40; 75:25) on the quality of biodiesel as well as the best comparison can be used to produce biodiesel in according to SNI 04-7182-2006 standards through in-situ transesterification process. The results shown that the increasing in the composition of the waste cooking oil and catalyst concentration affected the quality of biodiesel produced, because the larger composition of the waste cooking oil biodiesel the better quality will be. Comparison of WCO and FPD that can best be used to produce biodiesel was cooking oil 75 g: 25 g of fresh palm dregs with a catalyst concentration of 1.5% which has a volume of 70 ml of biodiesel, biodiesel is clear color, density of 0.865 g/ml, free fatty acid of 0.561%, viscocity of 5.118 cSt, calorific value of 9436.93 cal/gr and a flash point of 190 ° C, where the values have met the quality standards of biodiesel according to SNI 04-7182-2006.
