Laboratory instrumentation solutions for the biodiesel research - Energy - Bioenergy

As biodiesel is formed through a simple transesterification, it is easily monitored and characterized by NMR Spectroscopy. This analytical technique allows easy, non-destructive evaluation of many of the components regulated in biodiesel standardization (e.g., water, alcohol, phosphorous, and glycerol content). Subsequently, the NMReady could be easily incorporated into characterization to improve workflow. NMR Spectroscopy can be used to quantify the percentage of biodiesel in composite fuel mixture.
