要旨

There are many medicinal application found in sapodilla fruit, bark leaves and seeds like inhibition of ehrlich ascites carcinoma, in vitro and in vivo  antioxidant activity, free radical scavenging activity and antimicrobial activity. Biodiesel is a more attractive product from sapodilla seed oil to diesel engines, because of seeds are chiefly available and non-edible to all human being. Since most of the biodiesel were derived from edible oils like soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, palm etc. these oils are essentially edible in India and other developing countries and use in biodiesel leads to food crisis. Because of the non-edible oil having high free fatty acid(FFA) content, which is not suitable for normal transesterification process, hence a two-step catalyzed method i.e. acid catalyzed method followed by alkali catalyzed, was used to prepare the biodiesel. For this study the sapodilla seed oil was used to extract the biodiesel. Therefore, this research mainly concentrates the non-edible oil as a feed stock for biodiesel production to reduce the cost of biodiesel.  Keywords: Medicinal, non-edible, biodiesel, feed stock, sapodilla, acid catalyzed
