Biodiesel production from various feedstocks and their effects on the fuel properties (2008, background): “Nowadays, biodiesel unit price is 1.5–3.0 times higher than that of petroleum derived diesel fuel depending on feedstock [19, 82, 83 ].”
Factors Affecting Biodiesel Production (2011, methodology): “Effect of molar ratio of alcohol Molar ratio of alcohol plays a vital role in biodiesel yield (Leung and Guo, 2006; Zhang et al., 2003: Ma and Hanna, 1999; Freedman et al., 1986).”
Political, economic and environmental impacts of biofuels: A review (2009, background): “In previous economic studies of biodiesel production, the main economic factors such as capital cost, plant capacity, process technology, raw material cost and chemical costs were determined [43].”
The economics of current and future biofuels (2009, methodology): “Four continuous process configurations with HYSYS simulation were studied in detail for biodiesel capital and production cost comparison by Zhang et al. (2003) using waste oils, with cost ranging from $644 to $884/ton (∼$2.10–2.90/gal).”
