Due to the dwindling crude oil resources and the detrimental environmental effects of toxic
emissions from conventional diesel, biodiesel has gained importance over the last few years …

Biodiesel is gaining acceptance in the market as fuel and lubricant. It is expected that
biodiesel industries will rapidly grow worldwide in the coming years and information on …

In the last few years, biodiesel has emerged as one of the most potential renewable energy
to replace current petrol-derived diesel. It is a renewable, biodegradable and non-toxic fuel …

Because of biodegradability and nontoxicity biodiesel has become more attractive as
alternative fuel. Biodiesel is produced mainly from vegetable oils by transesterification of …

As an alternative fuel biodiesel is becoming increasingly important due to diminishing
petroleum reserves and adverse environmental consequences of exhaust gases from …

Heterogeneous catalysts are promising for the transesterification reaction of vegetable oils
to produce biodiesel. Unlike homogeneous, heterogeneous catalysts are environmentally …

The increased demand for energy, climate change, and energy security concerns has driven
the research interest for the development of alternative fuel from plant origin. Biodiesel …

Biodiesel production is worthy of continued study and optimization of production procedures
due to its environmentally beneficial attributes and its renewable nature. Heterogeneous …

This paper reviews the current status of biodiesel production mainly under supercritical
conditions. Various methods such as homogeneous acid-and alkali-catalyzed …

A novel solid acid nano-catalyst [Ti (SO 4) O] was synthesised and used for the
