production of biodiesel with diagrams Prerequisites

The dual problem of energy crisis and global warming will badly hurt both developing and developed nations of the world if a viable solution is not found soon enough. Environmentally this fuel has proven to be a much less pollutant than its counterpart, the standard diesel.

The regular diesel has components such as sulfur and aromatics. It can be made in any part of the world from local recourses. Biodiesel also provides considerably fewer combustion emissions when compared to petroleum-based diesel fuel.

There is also ongoing research into using sewage grow algae which is then used in the refining process. And conversion kits are readily available for older diesel engines. Biodiesel holds the promise of being used as a cheaper alternative heating fuel for domestic and commercial boilers.

Using biodiesel is very cost effective and can save a lot of money. There is still a lot of work ahead of us to truly replace the fossil fuels with bio fuel.
