Professors Rajeshwar Dayal Tyagi and Patrick Drogui, researchers at the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS), have developed a new approach to biodiesel production that uses microbes, ...

Researchers at Cardiff University have devised a way of increasing the yield of biodiesel by using the waste left over from its production process. Using simple catalysis, the researchers have been ...

Kevin Lofgren in the lab holding a flask containing the pure biodiesel product made with the process described in the journal Energy & Fuels. UC Santa Cruz chemists have discovered a new way to ...

An electrooxidation process efficiently converts glycerol, a byproduct of biodiesel production, into high-value three-carbon compounds. An electrochemical process developed by researchers at Tokyo ...

Chemists are reporting development of what they termed the first economical, eco-friendly process to convert algae oil into biodiesel fuel -- a discovery they predict could one day lead to US ...

Biodiesel is a type of diesel fuel made from plant and animal matter instead of petroleum. Here are 4 innovations that show promise. Green transportation is one of the most important considerations in ...

R3V Tech is scaling its electrochemical reactor and plans to develop a self-contained, modular unit housing the reactor and supporting components for commercial application - AI-generated concept ...

First, we consider the stoichiometry that underlies the production of oleyl ethyl ester in a microbial cell. The production of this ester requires five molecules of glucose or six of xylose and one ...

Continental Refining Company (CRC) will keep its soybean processing plant idled for the season as it evaluates options to ...

Illinois biodiesel producer BN National Trail announced this morning that it has secured a purchase agreement of all biodiesel process equipment from Kreido Biofuels. Online, October 19, 2010 ...

Biodiesel, a green alternative to conventional diesel, has been shown to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by up to 74%. Biodiesel is produced through transesterification, converting triglycerides into ...
