Biodiesel has the potential to contribute significantly to the elimination of the present global energy and climate change logjam, but its production and commercialization have been hindered by the diverse nature of the feedstocks used for production. This paper reviews the effectiveness of applying various types of crop and animal waste-derived catalysts together with innovative feedstock hybridization as an economically viable technique for biodiesel production. Feedstock challenges, availability, and sustainability for large-scale applications are addressed with a view to bridging the existing gaps. Challenges in the use of edible oils and algae oil sources and development remain, but the technique of feedstock hybridization appears to be very promising, innovative, and cost-effective for biodiesel production. The present state of biodiesel production could be improved by the application of simple and cost-effective technologies in the feedstock system. High free fatty acid (FFA) content is the major hurdle to the use of most oils, especially low-grade/advanced oil feedstocks, in biodiesel production. This could be addressed through technological application of feedstock hybrids and biogenic waste-derived heterogenous catalysts, and their biochemical modifications. Conventional technology for the large-scale application of inorganically derived catalysts in biodiesel production with various characteristic differences is presented. Heterogenous catalysts derived from biogenic wastes and their modification could be used to overcome associated problems with the use of inorganic catalysts in biodiesel production. Biogenic waste-derived heterogenous catalysts are renewable, available, eco-friendly, and cost-effective. Technological applications of heterogeneous catalysts derived from biogenic waste are outlined and reviewed, considering various materials and different modification techniques to identify appropriate options for scaling up development. This review also discusses fundamental considerations for the Review

“…The effects of main transesterification reaction parameters including the catalyst amount, reaction temperature, reaction time, alcohol/oil molar ratio, on biodiesel properties were investigated by various researchers using different optimization methods such as Response Surface Methodology [23][24][25][26]. It has been reported that, an increase in the reaction temperature and alcohol/oil molar ratio lowered the biodiesel yield due to the evaporation of alcohol.…”

Biodiesel is an attractive alternative fuel for diesel engines produced from vegetable oils or animal fats by transesterification in the presence of a catalyst. The feedstocks used in this experiment for the production of biodiesel were waste frying oil (WFME) waste canola oil (WCME), and their different percentages are referred to as 25-WFME, 50-WFME and 75-WFME. The samples are sourced from Northern Cyprus. Also, biodiesel was produced at Mechanical Engineering research laboratory. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the temperature on the kinematic, dynamic viscosity and density of the biodiesel samples. Also, this paper examines the cold flow properties as well as the kinematic viscosity, cloud point (CP) and pour point (PP) of the produced biodiesel. The density, kinematic viscosity, CP and PP measurements were made according to ASTM standards. The properties of the produced biodiesel such as viscosity and density were measured within temperature ranges 20-270°C in steps of 10°C. The kinematic viscosity, CP and PP were measured within temperature range -10-20°C. In this study, five general correlations were presented for estimating the density and kinematic viscosity of the blends at several temperatures. The experimental investigation showed that CP and PP of WCME increased with an increase in the concentration of WFME. Furthermore, empirical equations for predicting the viscosity, density, CP and PP for biodiesel samples give values in good agreement with experiments. The results obtained show that with the increase of the temperature, kinematic viscosity, dynamic viscosity and density decreased.

The energy crisis has become an important global issue because of the depletion of non-renewable fossil fuels. Therefore there is a need to explore alternative sources to solve the energy security problem. Different sources are available for energy production among which biodiesel is considered to be effective for reducing the dependency on fossil fuels. Biodiesel production causes less adverse impacts on the environment compared to petroldiesel and even the fuel properties are superior. Transesterification reaction was employed for producing biodiesel from various feed-stocks such as edible oil, non-edible oils, animal fats and used cooking oil etc. Thus, the present study investigates the various precursor materials used for biodiesel production. It also reviews the types of catalysts used and the effect of operating conditions on the transesterification reaction.
