Abstract—Biodiesel is one of the alternative energy for the future. Many scientists research for the new alternatives energy fuel from plants. One of the promising raw material for making biodiesel is made from
cerbera manghas.
Cerbera manghas can be found in the tropical plant in Indonesia usually in Bintaro area or Bumi Serpong Damai (BSD) area in Tangerang- city, Indonesia.
Cerbera manghas has poison fruits and usually it is used for rat repellent in the housing area. In this research, Biodiesel was made from
cerbera manghas using different catalyst, NaOH, and zeolite. There are four samples; blended between diesel fuel (90%) and Biodiesel cerbera manghas using catalyst NaOH (10%) (CMNaOH10), blended between diesel fuel (95%) and biodiesel
carbera manghas using catalyst NaOH (5%) (CMNaOH5), blended between diesel fuel (90%) and biodiesel
Carbera manghas using catalyst zeolite (10%) (CMZ10) and blended between diesel fuel (95%) and biodiesel
carbera manghas using catalyst zeolite (5%) (CMZ5). In the results, CMNaOH10 and CMNaOH5 have higher in ash and sediment content. Nevertheless, CMZ10 and CMZ5 have good results as they meet all the requirements for the Biodiesel specification.
Index Terms—Carbera mangas, biodiesel, catalyst, zeolite, NaOH.
