Özet
This study comparatively investigates the effects of graphite and titanium electrodes on process performance, energy consumption, and product quality in the electrolysis-based production of biodiesel from waste cooking oil (WCO). To optimize the production parameters, a Taguchi L18 orthogonal array and Response Surface Methodology (RSM) were systematically employed. The results demonstrated that while graphite electrodes operate effectively at lower voltages (approximately 20 V), titanium electrodes require higher voltage levels (60 V) to achieve significant conversion. Under optimized conditions, titanium electrodes achieved a remarkably high biodiesel conversion yield of 93.00% with a specific energy consumption (SEC) of approximately 1.19 kWh/kg, whereas graphite electrodes yielded 83.45% with a significantly lower SEC of 0.25 kWh/kg. Statistical analysis (ANOVA) revealed that the KOH catalyst ...
