Waste frying oils (WFO) are a promising source in terms of feedstock for biodiesel
production, and have a lower cost than the typical refined vegetable oils. In addition, the use …

Among the possible options for the transformation of plant oils and animal fats to biodiesel,
the alcoholysis process has been frequently selected. The rate of alcoholysis reaction is …

The production and physicochemical characterization of high quality biodiesel from the from
safflower seed oil extracted by different extraction methods was studied. The oil extraction …

These days, many used cooking oils from restaurants were re-used by street sellers to fry
their food. Those waste oils commonly just throw away. Whereas waste oils which have not …

We present the effects of the addition of biodiesel, derived from waste frying oil, to fossil-fuel
diesel, on soot emissions, and on the physicochemical properties of soot particles. Biodiesel …

Biodiesel is produced on a large scale as an eco‐friendly substitute and additive to fossil
fuels. Catalytic homogeneous processes using strong acids, alkalis, and natural oils have …

In this work, a novel method was proposed for the conversion of waste cooking oil into
biodiesel. A two-step approach based on a pretreatment with AlCl 3• 6H 2 O to convert FFA …

Fatty acid esterification with alcohols is a crucial step in biodiesel synthesis. Biodiesel
consists of long-chain alkyl esters that derive from the transesterification or hydro …

Cultivating microalgae for biodiesel production is a new and emerging research field that
has the potential to revolutionize the renewable energy industries. However, up to now …

La sustitución de los combustibles denominados fósiles o tradicionales, derivados del
petróleo, por otros, de origen biológico, representa uno de los grandes retos que enfrenta la …
