“…Table 2 presents details on the yield of oil derived from mango seeds via the solvent-based extraction method. Specifically, the yield of 16.50% obtained is in good agreement with 15-17% reported in the literature (Okonkwo and Omenihu, 2021). Oils with good potentials for upgrade to fuels or direct energy applications must exhibit certain physicochemical properties.…”

Biodiesel production via catalytic transesterification of non-edible oils derived from plants is one of the priority areas considered by researchers as an approach to reduce the over-dependence on fossil fuels. However, the development of most appropriate catalyst system is still under investigation. The current study therefore investigated the potentials of bone ashes derived from cow, camel and goat as catalytic materials for upgrading mango seed oils into biodiesel under a range of reaction conditions. Irrespective of the bone ash type, the XRF data revealed the presence of CaO, P2O5, SiO2, Al2O3, K2O, Na2O, MgO, TiO2 and Fe2O3. Among the nine oxides, CaO and P2O5 were found to play a competitive role during the upgrading reaction. However, reactions influenced by active basic sites in CaO were very favourable and accounted for the production of high biodiesel yields reaching maximum at ~94.5%. Further studies on properties characterization showed the produced methyl esters to have properties in line with those approved internationally for the designing of B100 and other grades of biodiesel.

“…Conventional management of these wastes also has economic and environmental impacts unless there is integration between different waste‐to‐energy conversion and other valorization techniques. Various research findings confirmed that anaerobic digestion of mango byproducts contributes to the production of biogas, 4,21 bioethanol, 22 biodiesel, 23 bio‐briquettes, 8,24 and oil extraction 15,25 . Besides addressing energy insecurity and reducing emissions, it also generates higher economic benefits by reducing costs associated with purchasing virgin raw materials in food processing, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries, and by creating new employment opportunities 1,26 .…”

Increasing global waste generation is not only a threat but also an opportunity to address energy insecurity and pollution using green valorization techniques. However, this requires pretreatment of waste and byproducts and optimization of drying to obtain high‐quality biofuels. Hence, this study aims to analyze the performance of currently used drying models, the influence of different drying temperatures, drying time, and seed pretreatment on the drying kinetics of two varieties of mango seed. Accordingly, whole seeds and crushed seeds were exposed to five drying temperatures (313–353 K) in a heating furnace. Weight loss was recorded systematically, converted into moisture ratio, and then fitted to four semitheoretical mathematical models, namely: (i) Lewis, (ii) Henderson and Pabis, (iii) Page, and (iv) Avhad and Marchetti models. The fitness of these models was compared using statistical parameters, such as R2, X2, root mean square error (RMSE), mean bias error (MBE), and mean absolute error (MAE). The results showed that seed pretreatment and increasing the drying temperature led to an increase in the rate of moisture evaporation and reduced the time required for drying. Among all models, the Avhad and Marchetti model provided higher R2 values of 0.9994 and 0.9991 for local and hybrid mango at 313 K, and 0.9977, and 0.9970 for local and hybrid crushed mango seeds at 353 K and 313 K, respectively; hence, it showed the best performance. The activation energy (Ea) showed a slight differences for both varieties of mango seed and among pretreatments in all mathematical models. The mean Ea values for local and hybrid mango seeds were 41.18 kJ mol−1 and 46.21 kJ mol−1, respectively. For whole and crushed local and hybrid mango varieties, the mean Ea values were 31.37 kJ mol−1, 40.80 kJ mol−1, 50.99 kJ mol−1, and 51.61 kJ mol−1. The likely reason for this variation might be differences in variety, chemical composition, growing conditions, and cellular structure of the seed varieties.

“…The waste mange seeds are collected from local waste disposal systems and local mango processing industries in Andhra Pradesh, India. Then, the collected seeds are cleaned with the help of water and exposed to daylight for 7 days to evaporate the moisture content therein 47 . After removing the hard outer shell from the seeds, the mango kernel, which contains 70% carbohydrates, 15% fats, 5% protein, and the remaining 20% calcium and phosphorus, is separated.…”

The ultimate goal of this study is to find a better method for minimizing hazardous emissions from a diesel engine. For this reason, emission parameters such as smoke, nitrogen oxides (NOX), unburned hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide from a single‐cylinder diesel engine were analyzed using various biodiesel blends. The biodiesel was extracted from mango seed oil through trans‐esterification and combined with pure diesel at a 2:8 ratio. The prepared biodiesel (MSME20) was further mixed with 50, 100, and 150 ppm of either cerium oxide (CeO2) or magnesium oxide (MgO) nano‐particles through ultra‐sonication to prepare various fuel blends. The results reported that the addition of nano‐particles significantly lowered CO, HC, and smoke opacity by 25%, 25%, and 28% when compared with diesel. Also, there was a nearly 16% brake thermal efficiency gain from 50 ppm nano‐particle‐added MSME20 than pure MSME20. But for NOX emission, MSME20 fuel produced 106 ppm more NOX than diesel. Later, it was reduced up to 24 ppm while adding 50 ppm nano‐particles into MSME20 fuel. Further, a hybrid deep belief network‐coupled sandpiper optimizer was developed to optimize fuel blends. The proposed algorithm showed 37.5 ppm nano‐particle added 17.5% MSME as an optimal mix for the tested engine while running with 50% load.
