Production of Biodiesel from Vegetable (Soybean) Oil

Abstract

Abstract

We are living in a high time where we have to keep ourselves safe from the adverse effect pollution have on our nature, and in turn, on us. We see nowadays a very huge extent of pollution, and deaths this pollution and activities related to it causing. It is the need of the hour where we must opt for an alternative which is low on the pollution, and subsequently on the deaths. Not only biodiesel produces sulphur-less and less toxic and low particulate matter consisting emissions, but it also is a renewable source of energy as major part of it extracted is from either the vegetable oil or from the animal fat. This not only makes humanity eligible for renewability but also to a more environment friendly energy resource to be depended up-on.
