TL;DR: In this paper, a review of cost effective technologies and the processes to convert biomass into useful liquid bio-fuels and bioproducts, with particular focus on some biorefinery concepts based on different feedstocks aiming at the integral utilization of these feedstocks for the production of value added chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Waste cooking oil – an economical source for biodiesel: a review
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the methods for the transesterification of waste cooking oil and the performance of biodiesel obtained from waste cooking oils in a commercial diesel engine is presented, and the effects of the products formed in the frying process on biodiesel quality are examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and characterization of bio-diesels from various bio-oils.
TL;DR: For different esters from the same vegetable oil, methyl esters were the most volatile, and the volatility decreased as the alkyl group grew bulkier, however, the bio-diesels were considerably less volatile than the conventional diesel fuels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of stable bimetallic catalysts for carbon dioxide reforming of methane
TL;DR: In this article, a coprecipitation method was used to form Ni-Me-Al-Mg-O composite, and Ni-Co bimetallic catalysts were prepared for carbon dioxide reforming of methane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solid acid catalyzed biodiesel production from waste cooking oil
TL;DR: In this article, the zinc stearate immobilized on silica gel (ZS/Si) was the most effective catalyst in simultaneously catalyzing the transesterification of triglycerides and esterification of free fatty acid (FFA) present in WCO to methyl esters.
