Time-Frequency Dynamics of Biofuels-Fuels-Food System

open access: yes, 2012
For the first time, we apply the wavelet coherence methodology on biofuels (ethanol and biodiesel) and a wide range of related commodities (gasoline, diesel, crude oil, corn, wheat, soybeans, sugarcane and rapeseed oil).

Advances in second‐generation biofuel production from rice straw and barley straw

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This review critically examines recent advances in the use of rice straw and barley straw as lignocellulosic feedstocks for second‐generation biofuel production. A comprehensive analysis of their chemical composition, including cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and ash content, reveals how these intrinsic properties affect the efficiency of ...

Castor oil biodiesel production and optimization

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Petroleum, 2018
Biodiesel is evolving to be one of the most employed biofuels for partial replacement of petroleum based diesel fuel, especially in recent years. The most widely used feedstocks for biodiesel production are vegetable oils.

Combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and adding red mud as a secondary catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming of digestate

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This work studies the combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and introducing red mud as a support catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming (TCR®) of digestate. The TCR® method, developed by the Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology UMSICHT (abbreviated as Fraunhofer UMSICHT), is an extension

Innovations in the biodiesel production

open access: yesPressacademia, 2017
Demand on energy from alternative fuels are growing rapidly due to depletion of fossil fuels and global warming crises. Biodiesel instead of conventional petroleum diesel, is a non toxic, biodegradable and renewable fuels.  Therefore, biodiesel can be considered as a promising liquid fuel for transport sector.

Lipids to biojet and sustainable aviation fuel: uses and competing demands for lipid feedstocks

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of biojet and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) as low carbon‐intensity (CI) fuels is likely to be the primary pathway to decarbonize aviation. ‘Waste lipids’, such as fats, oils, and greases (FOGs), are preferred feedstocks due to their lower CI. However, they are mainly used to make biodiesel or renewable diesel.
