The crescent number of scientific articles published per year shows that research on
biodiesel continues to play an important role to support the growing demand for this biofuel …

In the present work long term storage chemical and biological stability of three different
commercial Brazilian biodiesel fuels have been studied. Commercial biodiesel fuels from …

The introduction of biodiesel to diesel may allow the fuel to be more susceptible to
microorganism growth, especially during incorrect storage. To evaluate the effect of adding …

Microbial contamination of stored diesel/biodiesel fuel over time and the consequent
changes in the fuel chemical composition is of serious concern. The use of biocides has also …

Biofuels are renewable alternatives to fossil fuels mainly due to the lower impact they have
in terms of release of air pollutants. Brazilian diesel oil must be composed of 10–15 …

Biofuels are expected to play a major role in reducing carbon emissions in the aviation
sector globally. Farnesane (“2, 6, 10-trimethyldodecane”) is a biofuel derived from the …

With increasing demands for biodiesel in Brazil, diverse oil feedstocks have been
investigated for their potentials for biodiesel production. Due to the high biodegradability of …

Owing to its hygroscopicity biodiesel may accumulate water during storage, which becomes
favorable to the growth of microorganisms. In order to control microbial contamination, use of …

ABSTRACT The National Institute of Science and Technology for Energy and Environment
(INCT E and A) is a virtual network of scientific-institutional cooperation focused on research …

Conforme a previsão do governo brasileiro, até 2019, o óleo diesel (B0) receberá o
aumento de 10% de biodiesel, compondo a mistura B10. O biodiesel, devido a sua natureza …
