Assessment of the effects of microwave‐produced biodiesel blends on electric generator performance and emissions

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiesels are emerging as alternatives to diesel fuel. However, to be a feasible solution, biodiesels must meet strict criteria including high efficiency and minimal environmental impact. The current study focuses on evaluating ethyl ester biodiesel and its blends with diesel fuel to assess their potential.

Effects of hybrid metal oxide nanoparticles on the tribological and emission attributes of algae‐derived biofuel in compression ignition engines

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract The growing demand for sustainable fuels has accelerated the development of algae‐derived biodiesel for compression‐ignition engines. In this study, Chlorella vulgaris methyl ester (AME) exhibited physicochemical properties comparable to diesel and satisfied ASTM D6751 fuel quality requirements, making it suitable for blending.

Antioxidant Activity, Carbohydrate‐Hydrolysing Enzyme Inhibition, Antihyperglycaemic Effect and Associated Expression Changes of Bryophyllum pinnatum‐Fortified Wheat‐Plantain Snack in Streptozotocin‐Induced Diabetic Rats

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The developed wheat‐plantain‐based snack with Bryophyllum pinnatum had enhanced antioxidant properties, with high α‐amylase and α‐glucosidase enzyme inhibitory activities. When fed to STZ‐induced diabetic rats, it showed antidiabetic, hypo‐lipidaemic and anti‐inflammatory potentials, thus making it a fresh opportunity for the snacking community who are

Impact of high temperature processing and heating duration on fatty acid composition and trans fatty acid formation in seven cold‐pressed and five refined vegetable oils

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Edible oils are essential dietary constituents that contribute as energy source, fatty acids and medium for fat‐soluble vitamins. High temperature during frying induces changes in the fatty acid profile of edible oils. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the influence of high temperature (230 ± 5°C) and duration of heating (0, 1, 2

Physicochemical and functional properties of alkali‐soluble nonstarch polysaccharide‐rich fraction from selected edible flowers

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Polysaccharides were alkaline‐extracted (NaOH/ethanol) from edible flowers, yielding 52−65% carbohydrates with co‐extracted protein and salts. FTIR, SEM, and XRD revealed uronic acids, glycosidic linkages, amorphous matrices, and crystalline salts. Marigold and rose showed high water‐holding, swelling, and oil‐holding capacities, whereas hibiscus was ...
