4) Conclusions Oxidation stability of biodiesel depends on degree of unsaturation fatty acid composition and storage condition. Oxidized biodiesel results in an increasing of acid value, peroxide value and kinematic viscosity, which cause negative effects on engine. The storage temperature should be less than 40 o C to preserve the biodiesel stability. Antioxidant can delay the rate of oxidation. Type of antioxidant: BPH was more effective than BHT Antioxidant concentration: 600 ppm 17
