Biodiesel is a promising sustainable alternative to non-renewable petrodiesel. In this work, oils extracted from … microalgae are used for biodiesel production. To simplify the process, the extraction of the oils and their reaction are made to … (35-50 °C), reaction time (2-6 h), and methanol:oil (M:O) molar ratio (8:1-16:1) on biodiesel yield were investigated …

4.85%, two step transesterification process was adopted for biodiesel production. In the first step, 6:1 ethanol to oil … the corresponding maximum yield was 95.49%. The biodiesel produced with optimum values of transesterification process …Increased rate of use of fossil fuels have greatly polluted the earth through harmful by-products. Biodiesel is an …

Results show that blending SSO with palm oil before transesterification will … being blended up to 20% with petroleum fuels. Recently, the industrialisation of biodiesel is a major problem because of its …

Transesterification is the most common method of producing biodiesel from vegetable oils. A comparative study on the … catalyst loading in the transesterification process. The highest biodiesel yields from the optimum setting for refined canola … biodiesel yields for each of refined canola, unrefined canola and unrefined camelina were determined. Results showed that the …

transesterification of fried soybean oil with dimethyl carbonate using hydrobromic acid as catalyst. Optimized several factors that …

within the EU. In a recent working paper, we analyze the GHG emissions savings potential of rapeseed biodiesel. For this … purpose, we ran a life cycle assessment of rapeseed biodiesel using the same basic methodology and background data contained …. In most of the scenarios, rapeseed biodiesel does not reach the GHG emissions saving values using the formula contained …

With this paper, we provide the first quantitative investigation of vertical price transmission in the biodiesel supply … chain in Germany with the focus on the developments during the food crisis and the impact of subsidized US biodiesel exports …. With the strong promotion of the production and use of biodiesel during the first half of the past decade, the German …
