Phenol Deoxygenation over Hydrotreating Catalysts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Phenol deoxygenation has been investigated as a model reaction for the deoxygenation of fatty acid methyl esters in biodiesel. Hydrodeoxygenated biodiesel is a drop-in fuel for petroleum diesel, and is a premium diesel with a high cetane number.

Performance, emissions, and lubricant oil analysis of a marine diesel engine powered by raw Schizochytrium sp. and its blends

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Microalgae oil (MAO), a third‐generation biofuel, can support global transportation fuel demand as a fossil fuel substitute. Schizochytrium sp. MAO is particularly promising for direct use in compression ignition (CI) engines, especially in the marine sector, due to its adaptability and high oil yield.

Experimental Modeling of NOx and PM Generation from Combustion of Various Biodiesel Blends for Urban Transport Buses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Biodiesel has diverse sources of feedstock and the amount and composition of its emissions vary significantly depending on combustion conditions.

Influence of renewable energy trends on fossil fuel refining operations

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines how renewable energy indicators such as biofuel prices, biofuel integration, electrification, and carbon allowance prices relate to refined fuel production in Portugal’s refining sector. This is set against the backdrop of the sector’s decarbonization efforts and the economic pressures to meet European Union climate targets.

ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY OF BIODIESEL PRODUCTION IN NORTH DAKOTA [PDF]

open access: yes
The U. S. biodiesel industry is rapidly expanding due to energy production concerns, environmental concerns, and recent legislation. The most common type of biodiesel in the United States is derived from soybean oil.

Integration of on-farm biodiesel production with anaerobic digestion to maximise energy yield and greenhouse gas savings from process and farm residues

open access: yes, 2011
Anaerobic co-digestion of residues from the cold pressing and trans-esterification of oilseed rape (OSR) with other farm wastes was considered as a means of enhancing the sustainability of on-farm biodiesel production.

Effective pretreatment of wet microalgal biomass to enhance lipid extraction in biodiesel production

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiesel is a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Identifying and evaluating nonedible sources is essential to address ecological concerns and meet energy demands. Microalgae are effective for lipid production but their rigid cell walls hinder bioproduct release making the process energy‐intensive and costly.

Used cooking oil as a source for biodiesel blend [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
With the depleted world petroleum reserves and increase demand for oil as a fuel, it has become imperative to investigate the possibility of using non-fossil fuel as an alternative fuel for diesel engine.

ZnO/ionic liquid catalyzed biodiesel production from renewable and waste lipids as feedstocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A new protocol for biodiesel production is proposed, based on a binary ZnO/TBAI (TBAI = tetrabutylammonium iodide) catalytic system. Zinc oxide acts as a heterogeneous, bifunctional Lewis acid/base catalyst, while TBAI plays the role of phase transfer ...
