Abstract
In this study we present the synthesis and characterization of Biodiesel from Camelina seeds. The process involves the extraction of oil from Camelina Sativa seeds using petroleum ether, followed by the transesterification of the extracted seed oil using methanol and sodium hydroxide. Herein, we present our efforts towards understanding and maximizing the synthetic yield of the methyl ester biodiesel from Camelina Sativa seeds.
