Title:
Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) for Biodiesel Processing and Analysis

Abstract:
This report addresses evaluation of polypropylene nanofiber materials provided by Apollo NanoTech Inc. for their potential to remove glycerol and other contaminants from biodiesel preparations. This work was completed in parallel with the development of novel organosilicate sorbent materials directed at these applications. Solid phase extraction SPE offers the potential to reduce the volume of wastewater streams currently associated with biodiesel production. The polymer materials evaluated here are shown to remove glycerol from biodiesel preparations more effectively than commercially available SPE materials.
