Biodiesel is a sustainable liquid biofuel originated from animal fats, vegetable oils or waste oils. This renewable energy source is biodegradable, non-toxic and carbon neutral with low sulfur content. Carbon neutrality is a concept in which the emission of carbon dioxide upon burning of biodiesel is balanced by the carbon dioxide uptake by plants

This technology is related to the development of a highly innovative, energy efficient and environmentally friendly power production unit for decentralized (on or off grid) power generation. The unit has the capability for combined heat and power (CHP)production, as needed. The device is able to convert the fuel (LPG/NG/Biogas) into electrical and

We consume around 185 million metric tonnes of plant, or vegetable, oil each year. There are practically unlimited market opportunities with this feedstock already used widely in human food and animal feed, industrial oleochemicals (plastics, lubricants etc), and biofuels. Future growth is primarily limited by production constraints such as land us

Biodiesel fuel (BDF) has been widely produced from palm oil in Asia, soy bean oil in the USA, canola and sunflower oil in EU. However, some scientists warned that the utilization of BDF produced from these otherwise edible oils are not effective, especially in terms of fighting against climate change. What are the suitable raw materials for BDF? In

This fuel cell technology fits discretely into consumer and medical electronics. It can recharge in seconds and run off-the-grid for years, as it does not require a power outlet. The fuel cell has been demonstrated in a hearing aid and is sutiable for personal devices.
