Resumen
The aim of this study was to analyze spectroscopically the crude oil of Class III avocado from the Hass, Fuerte and Creole varieties, as well as the biodiesel produced by their transesterification. The crude oils were extracted by centrifugation and solvent. The products were analysed by physiochemical quality parameters. For obtaining biodiesel, samples were subjected to different conditions transesterification B1, oil-ethyl alcohol 96% + NaOH, B2: oil-ethyl alcohol 96% + KOH, B3: oil-methanol + NaOH, and B4: oil-methanol + KOH, and they were analyzed by infrared spectroscopy with Fourier transform. The best results were obtained with the B3 and B4 reactions in crude oil of the Hass variety extracted by centrifugation. The obtained biodiesel had an acceptable quality.
