Enzymatic Synthesis of Biodiesel from Jatropha tanjorensis Ellis and Saroja and its Potential as Biodiesel Feedstock

An Overview of Palm, Jatropha & Algae as a Potential Biodiesel Feedstock in Malaysia

The high demand to replace the petroleum fuel makes renewable and sustainable sources such as Palm oil, Jatropha oil and Algae as main focus feedstock for biodiesel production in Malaysia. There are many studies conducted on Palm oil and Jatropha oil, however, the use of Algae as an alternative fuel is still in its infancy. Malaysia already implemented B5 based Palm oil as a feedstock and this ...

Enzymatic synthesis of biodiesel

Lipases offer interesting perspectives as biocatalysts for the biodiesel synthesis, though their application is still limited by the poor stability of the enzyme at the operating conditions of industrial interest. In order to overcome this bottleneck, the inactivating effect of specific components of the methanolysis reacting system has been characterised, to develop a rational stabilization st...

From Pond to Pump: Microalgae as a Feedstock for Biodiesel

Alternative crops for biodiesel feedstock

Biodiesel, the name popularly given to fatty acid alkyl esters, has become an attractive option for the replacement of petroleum diesel (‘petrodiesel’). While its overall impact on the greenhouse effect continues to be debated, other qualities of biodiesel are unquestioned. Biodiesel is biodegradable, generally non-toxic and has superior lubricity to petrodiesel. Overall emissions are greatly r...
