Handbook of Plant-Based Biofuels (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Pandey, Ashok

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Providing state-of-the-art information on the status of biofuel production, in particular, bioethanol and biodiesel, this volume discusses the use of thermochemical and biochemical methods to transform biomass materials to biofuels. It describes the production of biodiesel from various plant sources, including karanja seed, jatropha seed, and rubber seed oils. The book examines the influence of increased demand on the international market price of ethanol and how the future of biodiesel requires improvements in conversion technology and an expansion of available feedstock through increased oil yields or oilseed production.
