【 摘 要 】

Kemiri Sunan (Reutalis trisperma) is one of the plants that can be used as an alternative fuel because it contains triglyceride that can be converted into Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) or biodiesel by transesterification reaction. This study aimed to determine the effect of capacity increment of transesterification on yield and quality of biodiesel. The method used in this study was experimental method with descriptive analysis. The treatment performed in this study were five different capacity of transesterification i.e. 200, 400, 600, 800 and 1000 mL. Each treatment repeated three times. The parameters of biodiesel observed were yield, moisture content, density, acid number and FAME identification (GCMS). The results revealed that Kemiri Sunan biodiesel produced by transesterification process in 800 mL capacity fulfilled the SNI standard of Biodiesel SNI 7182:2015 with moisture content was 0, 07%, acid number was 1, 76 mg-KOH/goil and methyl palmitate, methyl linoleate, methyl oleate and methyl linolenate as the four major FAME in Kemiri Sunan biodiesel.
