BIODIESEL PRODUCTION USING NON EDIBLE OILS: A REVIEW
Abstract
There is a growing demand to strike a balance between energy security and energy demand primarily causes by the reduction of fossil fuels. Several energy sources are being investigated and tested, primarily for driving automobiles. Biodiesel, a common vegetable oil derivative, is growing in popularity in a number of countries due to its strong similarity to conventional diesel. Biodiesel can be promissory use as a replacement liquid fuel to petrol-based diesel for the compression ignition engines. Presently, vegetable edible oils are dominant source of biodiesel production. On the other hand, too much use of vegetable oils for production of biodiesel may imbalance food supply and economic growth. Therefore, non-edible oils like that Karanja, Argemone Mexicana, Neem, Mahua etc. are the viable solution for production of biodiesel. The main objective of current study to reveal that there is big prospect to uses of non-edible oil as main stock for production of biodiesel and use as alternative fuel of convention diesel fuel. In this paper, different methods of production of biodiesel and associated challenges for production of biodiesel from non edible oils are also reviewed.
