Analysis of carbonaceous solid deposits from thermal stressing of FAMEs and FAME/diesel blends at different temperatures in a continuous flow reactor
… diesel and two fatty acid methyl esters (FAMES), viz. rapeseed methyl ester (RME100) and soya methyl ester (SME100). Binary blends of 80 % EN 590 diesel and 20 %RME (RME20), 80 % EN 590 diesel and 20 % SME(SME20), 50 % EN 590 diesel and 50 % SME (SME50) and 93 % EN 590 diesel and 7 % SME …

Hydrothermal liquefaction of microalgae: Influence of varying cell compositions on biocrude yield and quality
… by the increasing fatty acid methyl ester (FAMEs) content and not gross lipid content as previously thought. A model linking biomass composition to HTL biocrude yield is proposed based on the contributions from a baseline (non-FAMEs) fraction and FAMEs fraction of the biomass. Biocrude …

SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIODIESEL FUELS FROM FURFURYL ALCOHOL AND SPENT COFFEE GROUNDS
… In this study, fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) and fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) were produced from their respective alcohols and coffee oil, using either a basic (K<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub>) catalyst or an acidic catalyst (H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub>). Fatty acid furfuryl esters …

Determination of fatty acid composition of oils by mass spectrometry
… Methanol is added to the sample to produce the FAMEs (Fatty acid methyl esters) done by acid catalyzed process. After this I identified these fatty acids by comparing their retention times to the FAMEs standard. Also using the chromatogram obtained from this experiment I could compare the …

Investigation of Liquid Trapping Following Supercritical Fluid Extraction
… increased extractable fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) by ten-fold, and in-situ derivatizations resulted in higher FAME recoveries than derivatization after SFE. Liquid trapping enhanced recoveries of lower FAMEs when compared to tandem (solid/liquid) trapping. In-situ acetylations sometimes …

Desulphurisation of fine coal waste tailings using algal lipids
… algal lipids (RALs) or fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), which are derived from RALs through transesterification. Batch flotation experiments were used to assess the performance of the two bioflotation reagents in comparison to oleic acid and dodecane, an alternative but less successful chemical …

New family of unsaturated polyamides from novel long-chain biomass-derived diacids
… unsaturated C14 to C18 fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), fatty diacid dimethyl esters (FDADEs), ω-hydroxyl fatty methyl esters (ω-OH FAMEs) and ω-1 hydroxyl fatty methyl esters (ω-1 OH FAMEs). We aim at extraction of FDADEs to use as the precursor for polyamide production. FDADEs is of our …

Metodología para la optimización de biolubricantes derivados de microalgas
… de ésteres metílicos de ácidos grasos (FAMEs) a partir de aceites derivados de las microalgas Nannochloropsis gaditana y Haematococcus pluvialis, así como de su caracterización fisicoquímica y tribológica, y su aplicación como aditivos lubricantes.

Extending the Limits of Solid Phase Microextraction
… <p>For the analysis of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMES) in olive oil, headspace SPME was used, followed by GC–MS-MS with a traditional DB-5 (95% dimethyl polysiloxane and 5 % biphenyl) column. A 37 component FAME mixture was used as standard mixture. Since FAMES are polar analytes, a polar fiber …

Flamelet modelling of soot formation in diffusion flames
… that these effects are more relevant for laminar fames than for turbulent flames. The steady flamelet model allows the inclusion of many transient processes and thereby loses in accuracy compared with the unsteady model. Finally, the process of the formation of agglomerates was included in the …

Biogeochemical applications of compound-specific radiocarbon analysis
… include long-chain n-alkanes, fatty acids (as FAMEs), n-alcohols, C30 mid-chain ketols and diols, sterols, hopanols, and ether-linked C4o-biphytanes of Archaea. The data show that the carbon source for most of the biomarkers is marine euphotic zone primary production or subsequent heterotrophic …

Growth Media and Lipid Determination Comparison of High Rate Algae Ponds
… methods, the fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) quantification was the most precise between replicates. However, this method determined the lowest lipid content because it quantifies a better representative lipid content by excluding other constituents not relevant to biofuel …

Burning S(e)oul: A Body for Cremation
… six years since my grandfather was gone in those fames. Threading the remnants of mourning, Burning S(e)oul, in forms of a short flm, is a dialogue between “absences” of bodies and architecture. It is presented as a triptych along three parallel timelines divided into fve tableaux. Narrating the …

Determining the impact of carrion decomposition on soil microbial activity levels and community composition.
… changes throughout decomposition. Shifts in FAMEs profiles were brought on by the onset of active decay and persisted through to the dry remains stage. The fatty acids 3OH 12:0, 12:0, 16:0 and 18:0 were frequently found in higher amounts in gravesoils and may prove useful as markers of …

USE OF MICROALGAE FOR WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND BIOFUEL PRODUCTION: EFFECTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINANTS ON THE CELLULAR RESPONSE
… of algae to pharmaceuticals; however, the FAMEs profile did not show a significant variation. FT-IR spectroscopy highlighted the subtle changes in the cellular basis, and FT-IR peak associated with lipids was strongly correlated with total FAMEs quantified by GC-MS (Pearson correlation …
