The current mandatory domestic biodiesel blending ratio is 3.5%, which is planned to be gradually increased to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. The aim of this study was to improve domestic self-sufficiency in biodiesel raw oil by conducting a technical review on the possibility of utilizing waste oils, such as soup oil, chicken oil, and leather oil, as biodiesel feedstocks. These waste oils have an acid value that is too high to be converted directly into biodiesel. Therefore, a pretreatment to reduce the acid value is necessary. The neutralization process was examined as a potential technology for reducing the acid value. The oil recovery rate of the soup oil after neutralization was significantly low at 37.6 wt%. The oil recovery rates of leather oil and chicken oil were 66.49 wt% and 79.08 wt%, respectively. Based on biodiesel conversion experiment using waste oil with a reduced acid value, the conversions were analyzed as 89 wt%, 91.1 wt%, and 90.5 wt% for soup oil, leather oil, and chicken oil, respectively. Thus, it is technically possible to use soup oil, leather oil, and chicken oil as raw materials for producing biodiesel.

바이오디젤에 대한 관심이 급증하면서 식물성유지의 가격이 급등하고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방안으로 동물성 폐기물을 이용한 연구가 진행되고 있으며, 이러한 연구는 환경오염을 줄이고 원료가격을 절감시키는 장점이 있다. 또한 동물성 유지는 식물성 유지에 비해 포화지방산이 다량 함유되어 있어 세탄가가 높고 발열량이 큰 연료특성을 갖고 있 다. 그러나 다량 함유된 포화지방산으로 인해 저온유동성이 좋지 않은 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 보완하기 위해 대두유와 폐계유를 혼합하여 바이오디젤을 제조하였다. 원료는 정제된 대두유와 폐계유를 사용하였으며, 실험은 대두유와 폐계유 혼합비를 1:9에서 9:1까지, 메탄올/유지 몰비를 7~15로 변화시키면서 수행 하였다. 실험조건으로 촉매는 KOH 1wt%, 반응온도 $55^{\circ}C$, 반응시간 1시간으로 하여 바이오디젤을 제조하였다. 그 결과 대두유와 폐계유의 최적혼합비율은 3:7이었으며, 메탄올/유지 몰비는 13으로 나타났다. 또한 제조된 바이오디젤의 성능을 평가한 결과 바이오디젤 수율(BD수율)은 90.2%, FAME 함량은 96.6%, LAME 함량은 4.1%로 나타났으며, 이 결과는 한국공업규격(KSM2413)을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다.

We investigated usefulness of chicken feather as bioadsorbent for removal of hexavalent chromium[Cr(VI)] and oil from aqueous solution. Chicken feather was chemically treated with DTPA, EDTA, NaOH and SDS, respectively. Among them, EDTA was the most effective in adsorbing Cr(VI). Cr(VI) uptake by chicken feather was increased with decreasing pH; the highest Cr(VI) uptake was observed at pH 2.0. By increasing Cr(VI) concentration, Cr(VI) uptake was increased, and maximum Cr(VI) uptake was 0.34 mmol/g. Cr(VI) adsorption by chicken feather was well described by Freundlich isotherm than Langmuir isotherm and Freundlich constant(1/n) was 0.476. As the concentration of chicken feather was increased, Cr (VI) removal efficiency was increased but Cr(VI) uptake was decreased. Most of Cr(VI) was adsorbed at early reaction stage(1 h) and adsorption equilibrium was established at 5 h. On the other hand, chicken feather adsorbed effectively oils including bunker-A and bunker-C. In conclusion, our results suggest that chicken feather waste could be used to remove heavy metal and oil; it is a potential candidate for biosorption material.
