Investigation on feasibility of producing biodiesel from moringa oleifera seeds

This study present the possibility of producing biodiesel from Moringa oleifera seeds oils. Moringa Oleifera seeds was crushed to fine size using mortar and pestle and the oil was extracted by using soxhlet extractor in the presence of n-hexane as the solvent at 70oC. The oil produced was then under...
