  Abstract:  

The main objective of the present work was to investigate the influence of rapeseed oil type upon the biodiesel quality. For this purpose eleven types of rapeseed oil were used to obtain biodiesel by alkaline transesterification. The produced biodiesels were examined for several physico–chemical characteristics in order to evaluate and compare their quality with the specifications for biodiesel according to the EN 14214:2004 European standard.

Keywords: rapeseed oil, biodiesel, alkaline transesterification
