  • Is sunflower vegetable oil a good choice for biodiesel production?
  • Therefore, the properties of biodiesel prepared from used vegetable oil were invariably close to those of commercial diesel. Thus, it can be concluded that sunflower vegetable oil is a good choice for large-scale production of biodiesel [ 20 ]. These catalysts are benign to the environment and are basically double-layered hydroxides.
  • How to make biodiesel from sunflower seeds?
  • The oil extracted from seeds was applied for biodiesel production through transesterification using a 6:1 methanol to oil molar ratio with 0.7% catalyst at 50 °C for 65 min. The process resulted in a 96.2% biodiesel yield with a heating value of 41.6 MJ/kg, corresponding to 84 kg biodiesel per ton of sunflower crop and 108.8 L gasoline-equivalent.
  • Can sunflower produce biogas and biodiesel?
  • The results showed the high potential of the sunflower crop for biogas and biodiesel production, even without pretreatment and acidic transesterification. The optimum biorefinery produced 11095.0 MJ bioenergy (210.9 m 3 methane and 0.084 t biodiesel) per ton of sunflower.
  • Can sunflower oil be used for biofuel production?
  • The residues of the sunflower crop are inexpensive and widely available substrates. These waste streams are typically burned or even left unused, creating serious environmental issues. In the present study, sunflower oil and its residues are used for biofuel production in the biorefinery framework.
  • Can India produce large-scale sunflower biodiesel?
  • With the data presented in Tables 1, 2 and 3, an attempt has been made to provide a glimpse into the existing overall picture of sunflower production in India. India ranks among the top 15 producers of sunflower, at the world level, and thus, would be able to provide raw material for possible large-scale sunflower biodiesel production.
  • Is sunflower oil better than palm oil for biodiesel?
  • Different oil sources such as corn, and grapeseed can be used in its production, however, sunflower oil has proved to have better fuel quality as compared to other oil sources [ 17, 18 ]. Furthermore, Simbi et al. [ 19 ], reported enhanced fuel quality of biodiesel produced from waste sunflower oil as compared to waste palm oil.
