  • Does tung tree seed oil accumulate a long time?
  • Oil from seeds of the tung tree ( Vernicia fordii) has unique drying properties that are industrially important. We found that the extended oil accumulation period was related to the high seed oil content at maturity among tung tree population.
  • Is tung oil a viable biodiesel feedstock?
  • One should note that the current production of tung oil is significantly greater than that of Jatropha curcas oil due to the long-term plantation of tung trees although the biodiesel produced from J. curcas oil has superior fuel properties. Thus tung oil is presently considered a potential non-edible oil feedstock for biodiesel production.
  • How much oil does a tung tree produce?
  • We also collected data on tung oil yield, which revealed substantial diversity: oil content ranged from 40 to 70% among individuals. In this study, twelve genotypes of tung tree, representative of the low (about 40%), middle (about 50?60%) and high oil contents (about 70%), were selected from the population to measure oil rate accumulation curve.
  • How is tung oil converted into biodiesel?
  • The crude Tung oil with 4.72 mg KOH/g of acid value (AV) was converted by direct transesterification, and the reaction mixture was quantified. The phase distribution data showed that 38.24% of excess methanol, 11.76% of KOH, 10.13% of soap and 4.36% of glycerol were in the biodiesel phase; 0.35% of biodiesel dissolved in the glycerol phase.
