“…In this context, camelina seeds have been identified as a potential alternative for the sustainable production of biofuel. [102][103][104][105][106][107][108][109][110][111] Fröhlich and Rice [107] evaluated the potential of camelina oil for the production of biodiesel. They performed an esterification reaction on the oil to obtain a biodiesel-grade methyl ester at laboratory and pilot-plant scales.…”

“…Yang et al [106] also worked on the optimization of the fatty acid methyl esters yield from the transesterification reaction. They optimized the yield obtained from unrefined camelina oil and the ones obtained from refined canola oil and unrefined canola oil by varying four parameters (temperature, time, molar ratio of methanol to oil, and catalyst loading) using a facecentered central composite design.…”

Camelina sativa seeds are rich in oil (30-49%) and protein (24-31%). They contain 𝝎-3 acids, 𝝎-6 acids, tocopherols, phytosterols, and phenolic compounds, among others. From an agricultural perspective, growing of this crop is of interest due to its short growth cycle and low fertilizer and water input requirements. Camelina is also tolerant to cold and drought and is consequently well adapted to grow in semiarid regions. Camelina is mainly cultivated for its oil in Europe and North America. In this review, the processes applied for camelina oil extraction, composition, and attributes, as well as the food and nonfood applications of camelina oil are reviewed. Applications include animal feed, functional foods, materials, biofuels, and agrochemicals. Valorization of the camelina protein found in the meal after the oil extraction is also discussed. Practical Applications: The need to develop an integrated process consisting of a degumming step to extract the mucilage from the whole camelina seeds, followed by an oil extraction step, and finally by a protein extraction step is highlighted. There is also a need to develop food applications of camelina oil. More research works should also focus on the utilization of camelina oil in food applications and in specialty applications such as functional foods, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical applications.

“…1 kg camelina oil was added to the reactor, and the temperature was set at 50 ºC, a reaction time of 1 hour, methanol/oil molar ratio of 8:1 and 1.3 wt. % KOH catalyst with respect to oil feed [35,36]. The reaction mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel and allowed to stand for 30 min for phase separation.…”

Biodiesel has received great interest as a promising substitute for petrodiesel. Biodiesel purification which follows the transesterification process is typically carried out using a wet washing process that generates large amounts of wastewater. Consequently, alternative methods are emerging as sustainable options for biodiesel purification. One of such methods is a dry washing process. In this paper, the performance of three dry washing media (commercially available BD-Zorb, sawdust and wood shavings) were evaluated as potentially suitable options for the purification of biodiesel derived from Camelina sativa. The results indicate that for the crude camelina biodiesel with an initial soap content of 9007 ppm, BD-Zorb exhibited the best purification performance. The soap removal capacity of BD-Zorb, sawdust, and wood shavings was 51.1 mL/g, 24.4 mL/g, and 9.4 mL/g respectively. The primary mechanism of soap removal using sawdust and wood shavings media was physical filtration and adsorption. While for adsorbent BD-Zorb, soap removal mechanism included adsorption and ion exchange due to the existence of a small amount of resins. The ion exchange led to a high acid number (1 mg KOH/g) of the purified biodiesel, and failed to meet the ASTM D6751 specifications (<0.5 mg KOH/g).

“…e biodiesel's properties resemble those of the standard diesel fuel; in addition, it can well be employed as a fuel mix or as a substitution for diesel fuel. Nowadays, disparate vegetable oils, say, soybean, camelina, sunflower, rapeseed, and palm oils, are being utilized for biodiesel production [6][7][8][9].…”

Biofuel production offers a non-fossil fuel that can be utilized in modern engines without any redesign. Regardless of receiving rising attention, many researchers have explored microalgae-based biofuel production and found biodiesel production is cost-effective compared to petroleum-centered conventional fuels. The primary reason is that the lipid accumulation of microalgae is possible. An efficient technique is proposed for optimized biodiesel manufacturing with microalgae through an IoT device with the hybrid particle swarm optimization (HPSO) algorithm for elapsing such drawbacks. First, the component of biodiesel is determined. Then, from the components, the temperature value is sensed through the IoT device. Based on the obtained temperature, the reaction parameters are optimized with HPSO to increase productivity and reduce cost. Finally, we observed performance and comparative analysis. The experimental results contrasted with the existent particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithm (GA) concerning iteration’s temperature, concentration, production, and fitness. The present HPSO algorithm has differed from the existing PSO and GA concerning IoT sensed temperature and production function. Fitness value and instance concentration are the performance parameters. It varies based on the iteration values. Thus, the proposed optimized biodiesel production is advanced when weighed down with the top-notch methods.
