Biofuels are made mostly from plants that have just been harvested. There are three main types of biofuel. Ethanol, biodiesel, and biojet fuel.

Biofuel Facts

A biofuel in any type of fuel in which the energy derived from the process of biological carbon fixation. Biological carbon fixation occurs in living organisms. The biggest difference between a biofuel and a fossil fuel is the time period over which the fixation occurs. In a biofuel, fixation occurs in months or years. In

Biofuels : What are they?

A biofuel is defined as any fuel whose energy is obtained through a process of biological carbon fixation. That definition serves to make our understanding of biofuels as clear as mud, so let’s unpack it a bit. Biological Carbon Fixation Carbon fixation is a process that takes inorganic carbon (in the form of things like CO2) and

Pretreatment process of soybean oil

1. Cleaning of soybean oil Objectives and requirements:Oil will be mixed with impurities during harvesting, transportation and storage. Although oil is usually cleaned before storage, it will still contain a small amount of impurities after initial cleaning, which can not meet the requirements of oil production. Therefore, after the oil enters the production workshop, it
