Autor Dipesh Kumar, Bhaskar Singh
en Limba Engleză Paperback – noi 2023
Biodiesel as an Alternative Fuel: Value Chain, Performance, Feasibility and Sustainability provides a fundamental understanding on the state-of-the-art processes involved in the production of biodiesel. The book offers a holistic analysis of mass scale biodiesel production in terms of techno-economic viability and sustainability challenges in the 21st century. It covers the entire biodiesel value chain, from feedstock production and conversion processes, to post-production refining and fuel quality assessment. Besides conventional approaches, recent technologies holding promising opportunities are discussed in-depth. The book's authors analyze and address major industry and environmental concerns in their discussion of lifecycle assessment and techno-economic assessment.

By exploring the fundamental concepts, latest developments and sustainability aspects, the book offers a complete understanding of the feasibility and sustainability of biodiesel. Researchers and PhD students coming into the field will be able to use this reference to acquire a holistic perspective of the subject. In addition, more experienced researchers and industry practitioners will benefit from the book’s techno-economic approach that will help readers make better-informed decisions when developing and deploying biodiesel-based technologies.

  • Presents the state-of-the-art production strategies to transform the state of the biodiesel industry
  • Explores the significant challenges and opportunities in improving the scale of production, acceptability and marketability of biodiesel
  • Compares biodiesel and renewable diesel on a range of parameters, including techno-economic viability and sustainability dimensions in the medium to long-term
