Green Diesel Production Via Catalytic Hydrogenation/decarboxylation Of Triglycerides And Fatty Acids Of Vegetable Oil And Brown Grease
… fuel technologies. In particular, green diesel, vegetable oil/animal fat/waste oil and grease derived hydrocarbons in diesel boiling range, has become an attractive alternative to biodiesel— a mixture of fatty acid methyl esters, particularly due to its superior fuel properties that are …

Potencial técnico e econômico para a produção de Fischer-Tropsch Diesel a partir de biomassa (FT-BTL) associada à captura de carbono no Brasil
In order to deal with the criticality of diesel fuel supply, due to a refining system incapable of attending the growing demand and the ever more restrictive specifications in act, the deployment of high quality biomass based diesel stands relevant to the national framework. This study aims to …

Influence of diesel spillage on the productivity of ipomoea batatas and lactuca sativa
The effects of diesel contamination in soil on the germination, growth and dry matter partitioning in Lactuca sativa (crisp head variety) and Ipomoea batatas (dagga variety) were studied at two diesel concentration ranges 0-30 and 0-6 ml/kg soil. The first experiment tested the effects of diesel …

Environmental and economic evaluation of algal-based biofuels through geographically resolved process and sustainability modeling
… of the water impacts of algae-derived renewable diesel production across the United States. First, a water footprint analysis is conducted to understand the direct freshwater and rainwater consumption of algal cultivation and provide a framework for comparison to traditional biofuel feedstocks. …
