ABSTRACT
Potassium hydroxide (KOH)-catalyzed
reactions were utilized to hydrolyze Jatropha curcas seed
oil. In this study, the effect of ethanolic KOH concentration,
reaction temperature and reaction time to the free fatty acid (FFA)
produced were investigated. D-Optimal Design was employed to study the
significance of these factors and optimum conditions for the technique was
predicted. The results showed that ethanolic KOH concentration
was a significant variable for hydrolysis of J. curcas seed oil.
In 18 experimental designs, FFA percentage
of hydrolyzed J. curcas seed oil increased from 1.89% to
102.2%. The optimal conditions of response were found at 1.75M of ethanolic KOH, 65
°C and at 2 h reaction time. Fourier Transforms Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR)
spectrum analysis confirmed the concentration of ethanolic KOH i.e.
at 1.00, 1.50 dan 1.75 M affect the percentage yields of J. curcas seed oil hydrolysis process.
Keywords: Alkaline

ABSTRAK
Tindak balas bermangkin
kalium hidroksida (KOH) telah digunakan untuk
hidrolisis minyak biji Jatropha curcas. Kesan
nisbah kepekatan KOH beretanol,
suhu dan masa tindak balas terhadap penghasilan asid lemak bebas (ALB) telah dikaji. Reka bentuk D-Optimum telah digunakan untuk menentukan keberkesanan
parameter tindak balas dan nilai optimumnya diramalankan serta ditentukan. Keputusan kajian menunjukkan bahwa kepekatan KOH beretanol
merupakan parameter yang bererti bagi hidrolisis minyak J. curcas.
Reka bentuk 18 uji kaji menunjukkan peratus ALB hasil
hidrolisis minyak J. curcas telah ditingkatkan daripada 1.89%
kepada 102.2%. Keadaan gerak balas optimum telah dicerap pada 1.75 M KOH beretanol,
suhu 65°C dan 2 jam masa tindak balas. Analisis Spektroskopi Inframerah Fourier
Transform (FTIR) telah membuktikan
bahwa pertambahan kepekatan KOH beretanol
pada 1.00, 1.50 dan 1.75 M meningkatkan peratusan hasil proses hidrolisis
minyak biji J. curcas.
