本研究以開發生質柴油的微波設備與製程為目標，目前市面上較常見的微波儀器通常只能容納少量反應物僅能作實驗使用，而少數可容納較多反應物的設備，幾乎都是使用大功率的微波源，成本較高故產業利用並不普遍；若要將微波應用在產業量產，必須開發能源效率高的腔體與製程，而本實驗首先以開發實驗腔體為目標，並以該腔體進行生質柴油製程實驗，蒐集實驗過程的操作經驗與實驗結果，在未來用以開發產線製程和大型腔體。
本研究首先量測生質柴油原料的介電性質，其後據以進行腔體設計的模擬與加工，模擬的過程中本研究也嘗試了一些情境分析設定，例如反應物量改變、攪拌棒轉動、腔體阻抗調整，作為未來實驗時操作腔體的依據。在實驗進行的過程中，遭遇到溫度量測與控制、微波外洩、氣壓控制及取樣耗時等問題，逐步地解決問題同時也累積know-how。
腔體完成後開始進行實驗，內容包含轉脂化反應與酯化反應，兩種反應皆是生質柴油產線上經常執行的製程。由目前實驗數據分析，推斷微波對轉酯化反應的加速效果較不顯著；而對於酯化反應的加速效果則相對明顯，事實上我們目前因為腔體氣密不佳，因此無法將反應環境的壓力降低，故蒐集到的數據並不足以直接斷定加速程度，但至少能確定的是微波與傳統加熱兩種不同方式會產生不一樣的反應效果。
此研究乍看與加速器相關較少，但其實應用了許多加速器與周邊儀器相關的知識，可以說是嘗試將尖端研究的基礎應用於民生產業，希望能藉此對產業做出些許貢獻。

Although the chemistry reaction acceleration effects of microwave were validated long time ago, its application on the chemical industry is still less. That is because the size of the microwave cavity and the volume of the contained reactant cause drastic effects on the microwave absorption. It is necessary to develop energy-efficient cavities and processes for applying microwave on industrial use. This research mainly developed microwave cavities for experimental use, and conducted biodiesel process experiments with the cavities. In the period, we collected operational experiences and experimental results that could be applied on the design of larger cavity in the future.
We simulated and optimized the electric field distributions and S11 value of the cavity, so that the cavities show higher energy efficiency. Then we carried out the biodiesel processes including the transesterification reaction and the esterification reaction by the cavity we made. By analyzing the experimental data, we found that the acceleration effect of microwave on the transesterification reaction is less significant; while the acceleration effect on the esterification reaction is relatively obvious. In fact, we are unable to fit the best reaction environment because of the poor airtightness of the cavity. The atmosphere pressure is not low enough, so the data collected is not able to directly determine the degree of acceleration, but at least it can be determined that the microwave heating and traditional heating will lead to different results.
This research at first glance is less relevant to accelerators, but in fact, many knowledge related to accelerator and peripheral instruments are used. It could be said that the application of cutting-edge research is applied to the civilian production industry, and it is hoped that this will do some contributions to the industry.
