“…Biodiesel contains no nitrogen or aromatic component and has sulfur content less than 15 ppm. Biodiesel has efficiency as a fuel similar to diesel oil and at the same time it is non-toxic, biodegradable, and has a low emission value (Jegannathan et al 2010). The use of biodiesel can reduce emissions of HCs, CO, PM, sulfates, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.…”

“…Biodiesel is defined as a mono alkyl ester, which is produced by transesterification of oil from renewable biological source like vegetable or animal fats. It is an alternative diesel fuel because of its environmental benefits such as being biodegradable, nontoxic and with low carbon dioxide emission profiles (Jegannathan et al 2010). …”

“…In chemical-catalyzed method, acid and alkali catalysts can be used (acidic or bases solution) for the production of biodiesel, but there are several drawbacks to this approach, including difficulties in the recovery of the glycerol and potassium and/or sodium salt, and the wastewater treatment problem (Jegannathan et al 2010, Li et at. 2011.…”

Biodiesel is a non-toxic and very low sulfur containing, renewable and biodegradable diesel fuel substitute with low volatility and high cetane number. It is derived from fresh or waste vegetable oils and animal fats transesterified with short chain alcohol such as ethanol or methanol in the presence of a catalyst. Several new types of carriers and technologies have been adopted in the recent past to improve the ability of a catalyst in transesterification. One of the new trends is nanoparticles-based immobilization of enzyme as a catalyst. The combination of the precise physical, chemical, optical and electrical properties of nanoparticles with the specific recognition site or catalytic properties has led them to appear in a myriad of novel nanomaterial application. Enzyme immobilized on nanoparticles showed a broader working temperature and pH range and thermal stability than the native enzyme. Enhancement in the reactivity of nanocatalysts is associated with their increased surface area, greater concentrations of highly reactive edge, unusual and stabilized lattice planes. The greater activity of nanomaterial immobilized biocatalyst affords operational simplicity, low energy consumption, and greater safety, in the process of transesterification. This review article highlights the issues including the exploration of the ability of nanomaterial to immobilize biocatalyst and factors that influence the activity of biocatalysts upon immobilization.

“…The role of the nature of the support surface on the loading and the activity, as well as on the operational stability of the immobilized enzyme has been investigated in details. For instance, a simple technique for lipase encapsulation in -carrageenan by co-extrusion was suggested by Jegannathan et al (2009Jegannathan et al ( , 2010. Carrageenan has been selected because of its availability, biodegradability, low cost, and lack of toxicity.…”
