In this study, response surface methodology (RSM) and machine learning (ML) were used to optimize the biodiesel production process via acid-catalyzed transesterification and esterification of triglyceride. The effects of catalyst content, methanol/UCO mole ratio, and irradiation time were evaluated using Box-Behnken design (BBD) and an artificial neural network (ANN). The highest biodiesel yield was obtained with optimal process parameters of catalyst content (4.94 wt.%), methanol/UCO mole ratio (16.76:1), and irradiation time (8.13 min), with a yield of approximately 98.62%.
In the present investigation, response surface methodology (RSM) and machine learning (ML) are applied to the biodiesel production process via acid-catalyzed transesterification and esterification of triglyceride (TG). In order to optimize the production of biodiesel from used cooking oil (UCO) in a microwave reactor, these models are also compared. During the process, Box-Behnken design (BBD) and an artificial neural network (ANN) were used to evaluate the effect of the catalyst content (3.0-7.0 wt.%), methanol/UCO mole ratio (12:1-18:1), and irradiation time (5.0-9.0 min). The process conditions were adjusted and developed to predict the highest biodiesel yield using BBD with the RSM approach and an ANN model. With optimal process parameters of 4.94 wt.% catalyst content, 16.76:1 methanol/UCO mole ratio, and 8.13 min of irradiation time, a yield of approximately 98.62% was discovered. The coefficient of determination (R-2) for the BBD model was found to be 0.9988, and the correlation coefficient (R) for the ANN model was found to be 0.9994. According to the findings, applying RSM and ANN models is advantageous when optimizing the biodiesel manufacturing process as well as making predictions about it. This renewable and environmentally friendly process has the potential to provide a sustainable route for the synthesis of high-quality biodiesel from waste oil with a low cost and high acid value.
