UC Santa Cruz chemists have discovered a new way to produce biodiesel from waste oil that both simplifies the process and requires relatively mild heat. This discovery has the potential to make the ...

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 ...

An electrochemical process developed by scientists at a Loughborough University spin-out company enables biodiesel producers to turn waste into profit—while slashing emissions and energy use.

Researchers developed a biorefinery model in BioSTEAM to evaluate industrial-grade azelaic acid production from high-oleic soybean oil using the two-step oxidative cleavage (TSOC) process. The modeled ...
