Preliminary Assessment of Instrumental Methods to Evaluate the Purity of Biodiesel Produced from Waste Vegetable Oil [PDF]
, 2014 America’s transportation sector is the key link between our growing dependency on oil, and resulting global warming pollution. Petroleum in our cars and trucks accounts for two-thirds of our total oil used and one-third of the U.S.

On the Usability of Pt/Al2O3 Catalysts for Exhaust Gas After Treatment in Ammonia Combustion Engines
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.Ammonia engines emit no CO2 but exhibit elevated emissions of NH3 and NOx, where conventional SCR systems are not effective due to the significant excess of NH3. This study investigates Pt‐based oxidation catalysts in a bypass configuration to adjust the NH3/NOx ratio, analyzing catalyst parameters and their impact on N2O formation to identify optimal ...

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Oil sands tailings ponds, such as those in northeastern Alberta, present environmental challenges due to slow sedimentation, water entrapment, and toxic naphthenic acids (NAs), which hinder water reclamation. This study assessed the tolerance and biodegradation potential of Chlorella vulgaris (C.

Glycerol carbonate formation from glycerol and dimethyl carbonate using lithium‐based catalysts
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Excess glycerol from biodiesel production can be sustainably converted into value‐added products like glycerol carbonate, for its use in polymers, solvents, and as ecofriendly alternative as green chemical in various chemical industries. This study aims to synthesize a catalyst optimized for the glycerol and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) conversion
