Biodiesel: Alternate Fuel for the Future Generations

Abstract

This paper offers a detailed idea of the potential technologies for generating renewable energy in the form of biodiesel. The rapid population growth requires energy that should be renewable in all respects and biodiesel will fulfil this. In recent years, due to the growing usage of petroleum fuels in the automotive and manufacturing industries, the world has begun to face serious problems such as environmental degradation, loss of the ozone layer, and global warming. Biodiesel is pulling the globe to its side as the alternative energy source due to strong oxidation properties and lubricating design.Therefore, in attempt to change the previous one, many researchers from various regions of the globe are conducting research to find an alternative source. Biodiesel will replace the current energy shortage and help mitigate global warming even further. The use of biofuels results in a decrease in global warming and also helps to sustain fossil fuel demand and supply levels. In addition to comparing the features of various fuels and their benefits and drawbacks, this paper provides an insight on the different fuel types accessible.
