From Wastes:
Biodiesel can also be obtained from reuse of
wastes meant to be discarded, ordinarily, such as:
-
waste vegetable Oil (WVO),
-
agro-industry residues/wastes (such as
slaughterhouse waste)
-
non-food-grade virgin oil
-
agricultural surplus
-
tall oil
(derived as a by-product of pulp and paper processing) and
-
fish oil.
Biodiesel production from recycled wastes
are common for small scale productions. For large scale or commercial
productions, vegetable oils obtained from oilseed plants are used.
For
in-depth discussion on ethanol feedstock, we recommend that you get a copy of
Clean Energy Fuels a book written by Dr. Dele Morakinyo one of the contributors to EnvironBusiness.com.
