Chapter 18 addresses the conversion of bio‐glycerol to value‐added chemicals especially acrylic acid to boost alternative sustainable routes for biodiesel production.
Chapter 19 introduces the sustainability in the production and use of biodiesel, which is mainly dependent on the types of feedstocks and government policy as the incentives of using biodiesel.
Chapter 20 discusses the advanced, sustainable technology with respect to the diversified feedstock and design of the novel efficient catalytic system for production of biodiesel and its commercialization.
