Biodiesel, an alternate and ecologically acceptable substitute for the conventional fuel, is
usually produced from a wide range of edible vegetable oils, which are normally used for …

Non-edible feedstocks such as animal fat wastes (AFWs) have recently increased in
popularity as alternatives to vegetable oils in the production of biodiesel. They are low cost …

Depleting fossil fuel sources accompanied by continuously growing energy demands lead to
increased interest in alternative energy sources. Blended biodiesel–diesel fuel has been …

Biodiesel will provide a significant renewable energy source for transportation in the near
future. In the present study, principal component analysis (PCA) has been used to …

Since industrial development and globalization of the world, fossil fuels remain a major
