Abstract

Research the process of making biodiesel as alternative energy using microalgae Nannochloropsis s.p using the In-Situ transesterification method. The manufacturing process is carried out in two stages: in situ transesterification using a batch reactor and distillation process purification. The research was carried out using the fixed variable, namely the molar ratio of oil, algae content: solvent, namely 1:20, and the independent variable stirring speed in batch reactors of 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 rpm with the catalyst used being a CaO/Hydrotalcite heterogeneous catalyst. This study obtained the highest crude biodiesel yield of 38.36% and the lowest Free Fatty Acid (FFA) content of 2.76 mg NaOH/gram sample at a stirring speed of 250 rpm.
