An incisive discussion of biofuel production from an economically informed technical perspective that addresses sustainability and commercialization together

In Biodiesel Production: Feedstocks, Catalysts and Technologies, renowned chemists Drs Rokhum, Halder, Ngaosuwan and Assabumrungrat present an up-to-date account of the most recent developments, challenges, and trends in biodiesel production. The book addresses select feedstocks, including edible and non-edible oils, waste cooking oil, microalgae, and animal fats, and highlights their advantages and disadvantages from a variety of perspectives. It also discusses several catalysts used in each of their methods of preparation, as well as their synthesis, reactivity, recycling techniques, and stability.

The contributions explore recently developed technologies for sustainable production of biodiesel and provides robust treatments of their sustainability, commercialization, and their prospects for future biodiesel production.

Perfect for academic researchers and industrial scientists working in fields that involve biofuels, bioenergy, catalysis, and materials science, Biodiesel Production: Feedstocks, Catalysts and Technologies will also earn a place in the libraries of bioenergy regulators.

This book covers the various technological developments and challenges in converting biomass residues into different forms of bioenergy. The continuous increase in the world population increased the demand for food products. The incorporation of modern technologies in agriculture increased the production of various food products, ending with excess generation of agricultural biomass residues from primary and secondary agriculture industries. Since, these biomass residues are a rich source of valuable bioproducts, they can be converted into various forms of bioenergy, such as biogas, biochar, biooil, biodiesel, and bioethanol. Besides, this approach is expected to address the gaps in biomass residue management and transformation to valuable bioproducts, and it also enhances the circular economy perspective. The book can be a valuable reference for beginners, researchers, and professionals interested in sustainable construction and allied fields.
