| Resumo: | Biodiesel and ethanol are the most industrially produced biofuels due to their economic
viability, as well as being important alternatives to conventional fossil fuels, offering a more
ecological and sustainable perspective. In this work, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR)
combined with chemometric tools was used for monitoring the quality of biodiesel/diesel
blends in terms of (i) simultaneous classification of the synthesis route and biodiesel feedstock,
(ii) authentication of second-generation biodiesel, and (iii) biodiesel content quantification.
Data-Driven Soft and Independent Modeling of Class Analogy (DD-SIMCA) achieved 100%
sensitivity and specificity in the test set for authenticating ethyl blends, while the Successive
Projections Algorithm for interval selection in Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis
(iSPA-PLS-DA) correctly discriminated all ethyl blends containing cotton, sunflower, and
soybean biodiesel. Additionally, only one misclassification occurred when ethyl and methyl
blends of the same three oil feedstocks were included in the model. For the last two applications,
two spectral regions (881-1651 and 1911-2203 nm) were investigated to avoid sample dilution
with organic solvents. As a result, the first derivative of Savitzky-Golay with a second-order
polynomial and a 15-point window proved to be the most promising preprocessing technique
when applied to the spectral range of 1911-2203 nm using DD-SIMCA, with efficiencies of
97.6 and 99.2% for authenticating jatropha and tallow biodiesel/diesel blends, respectively. For
biodiesel content quantification, a relative prediction error (REP) of only 2.85% was obtained.
As advantages, the proposed analytical methodology contributes especially to United Nations
Sustainable Development Goal (SDG/UN) No. 7 (affordable and clean energy), and aligns with
the principles of Green Analytical Chemistry. |
