Biodiesel is a renewable energy that comes from natural biodiesel feedstock, such as vegetable oil, animal fat, waste oil, algae, etc. It becomes one of the best alternative solutions for global fossil fuel energy crisis, because it has similar characteristic with diesel oil (petrodiesel).
Biodiesel has been gaining increased attention as a nontoxic, biodegradable and renewable new green alternative diesel fuel. Production of biodiesel can be synthesized by chemical or by lipase methods, while lipase method has more advantages compared to chemical synthetic method. In this article, the microbial strains with activity of lipase were isolated from long time oil-contaminated soil and strain...
Deoiled Jatropha curcas seed meal (DJSM), a chief waste material of oil extraction industry, will be generated on a large scale due to the growing interest in using Jatropha curcas seed oil as a feedstock for the production of biodiesel. Up to now, there is very little work on viable approach for the use of DJSM to the best of our knowledge. This article reports our studies on the utilization of this...
Oleaginous yeasts can use different kinds of residues as nutrients. Their biomass contains a significant fraction (>20%) of lipids, that can be used as feedstock for biodiesel production. Lipomyces starkeyi were able to survive and proliferate in the presence of olive mill wastewater (OMWW), without external organic supplement, in spite of the antimicrobial activity of their phenolic components...
