Description

Biodiesel fuel is increasingly being used in diesel supplies worldwide, as it both provides an environmentally preferable option and improves diesel engine performance through greater lubricity. The development and use of appropriate feedstocks to avoid food/fuel concerns, and technological developments directed towards improved quality and capacity, are crucial to the environmental impact of biodiesel production and utilisation and to the future of the industry. This book provides a comprehensive and timely reference on the entire biodiesel production chain, from soil to oil, detailing the range and development of biodiesel feedstocks as well as state-of-the-art biodiesel production technology. Key Features: evaluates biodiesel as a renewable energy source and documents global biodiesel development; the outlook for biodiesel science and technology is presented exploring the challenges faced by the global diesel industry; reviews feedstock resources and vegetable oil formation including emerging crops and the agronomic potential of underexploited oil crops. Contents: Biodiesel as a renewable energy source; Development of non-food agricultural industries for biofuel applications; Oleochemical sources: basic science, processing and applications of oils; Vegetable oil formulations for utilisation as biofuels; Feedstocks for biodiesel production; Emerging new energy crops for biodiesel production; Transesterification processes for biodiesel production from oils and fats; Biodiesel catalysis; Processes for biodiesel production from unrefined oils and fats; Biocatalytic production of biodiesel; Industrial process technology for biodiesel production; Analytical methods and standards for quality assurance in biodiesel production; Valorisation of the glycerol by-product from biodiesel production; Sustainability and use of biodiesel; Evolution of biodiesel and alternative diesel fuels; Epilogue: Outlook for biodiesel science and technology.
