In this study, the production of biodiesel from the cold pressed oil of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) of Balci variety grown in Yozgat ecological condition has been carried out. The oil yield of Balci seed and the biodiesel output of the oil were studied in order to know the productivity of the oil. The fuel properties of biodiesel assessed includes, density (15 oC), flash point, kinematic viscosity (40 oC), cloud point, pour point, freezing point, water content, calorific value, pH and copper strip corrosion. The fuel properties of the biodiesel produced were compared with that of TS EN 14214.

Öz

Bu çalışmada Yozgat ekolojik şartlarında yetiştirilmiş olan aspir (Carthamus tinctorius L.) bitkisinin soğuk presle elde edilen yağından biyodizel üretimi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yağın üretkenliğini öğrenebilmek amacıyla Balci tohumunun yağ çıktısı ve yağdan biyodizel üretimi incelenmiştir. Biyodizelin yoğunluğu (15 oC), parlama noktası, kinematik viskozitesi (40 oC), bulutlanma noktası, akma noktası, donma noktası, su içeriği, kalorifik değeri, pH değeri ve bakır soyma korozyon değeri değerlendirilmiştir. Üretilen biyodizelin özellikleri, TS EN 14214 standardındaki yakıt özellikleri ile karşılaştırılmıştır.
