Abstract

In this paper the chemical refining of Jatropha Curcas L vegetable oil before the tranesterification process to obtain biodiesel and base oil to the formulation of the lubricants oil was developed. The objective is to determinate physic-chemistry properties of  Jatropha curcas L.  vegetable  oil (degumming and neutralized).    The characterization analysis, include tests of parameters using  the ASTM and AOCS standard specifications. In fact  the characterization,  the  oil could certainly be used as renewable energy (biodiesel) or/and lubricant.
