the depleting energy resources and increase in the energy demand throughout the world …

Fossil fuel depletion, environmental concerns, and steep hikes in the price of fossil fuels are
driving scientists to search for alternative fuels. The characteristics of biodiesel have made …

This article reviews various technologies that have been used for biodiesel production till
date, with a view to comparing commercial suitability of these methods on the basis of …

The demand for biodiesel as an alternative and potentially renewable fuel is constantly
rising. Biodiesel production from lipids in supercritical conditions offers several advantages …

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

Many countries are immersed in several strategies to reduce the carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions of internal combustion engines. One option is the substitution of these engines by …

Lesser-polluting and carbon-efficient systems are the new standards of energy, globally.
Biodiesel is an excellent bioenergy source due to its industrial feasibility and engine …

Biodiesel is a biofuel obtained from vegetable oils or animal fats by transesterification with
methanol, so that it offers a very promising alternative respect to diesel fuel, since it is able to …

Waste oils are becoming increasingly more important as feedstock for the production of fuels
and chemicals. However, the high level of impurities in waste oils limits their use in …

The delay in the energy transition, focused in the replacement of fossil diesel with biodiesel,
is mainly caused by the need of reducing the costs associated to the transesterification …
