Biodiesel | Biogas
Biodiesel is an alternative fuel similar to conventional or ‘fossil’ diesel. Biodiesel can be produced from straight vegetable oil, animal oil/fats, tallow, and waste cooking oil. The process used to convert these oils to Biodiesel is called transesterification. The main benefit of biodiesel is that it can be described as ‘carbon neutral’. This means that the fuel produces no net output of carbon in the form of carbon dioxide (CO2). This effect occurs because when the oil crop grows it absorbs the same amount of CO2 as is released when the fuel is combusted. In fact, this is not completely accurate as CO2 is released during the production of the fertilizer required to fertilize the fields in which the oil crops are grown. Biogas can be produced from crude issues, for example, horticultural waste, civil waste, excrement, plant material, green waste, sewage or sustenance squander. Biogas is a sustainable power source and in various cases, it applies a restricted carbon impression. Biogas can be produced by the maturation of biodegradable materials or anaerobic processing with anaerobic life forms, which breaks down material inside a secluded framework.
