Overview: Catalysts, Feedstocks in Biodiesel Production
Regarding edible oils, in a number of nations sunflower/rapeseed/palm oil/soybean edible oils have been used as feedstocks for production of biodiesel, i.e., cocunut oil (Cocos nucifera) from plant coconut; soybean oil (Cycline max) from plant soybean; palm oil (Elaeis guineensis) from plant Mesocarp of palm oil; sunflower oil (Helianthus annuus) obtained from plant sunflower; rapeseed oil
Figure 3.3 shows the global geographic distribution of the main edible and inedible oil plants by countries used for the production of biodiesel. Soybean is widely cultivated in the world; in 2019 the global production reached 122 million hectares, the largest producers being Brazil, the USA, Argentina, India, and China, resulting in 106

International experiences with the cultivation of Jatropha
For all of the challenges described above, the production of biodiesel from the Jatropha curcas plant can be considered as an optimal alternate feedstock. The oil from J. curcas has the appropriate qualities for use in the production of biodiesel, such as low acidity, good oxidation stability in comparison e. g. to the oil from soybean, lower viscosity than the oil from castor, and better cold
of the biodiesel production. The comprehensive Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) of soybean biodiesel production was conducted by National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in 1998. Because of increasing changes in land use and production process, the LCA conducted few years ago is no longer representative of current practices.

Sustainable biodiesel: A comprehensive review on feedstock
As Jatropha curcas and Pongamia pinnata are plentiful in India's woods and wastelands, biodiesel production is possible. Biodiesel is made from rapeseed and sunflower in Europe and soybean in the U.S. Malaysia utilizes palm oil, Nicaragua Jatropha curcas, to make biodiesel (also known as the physic nut).
In the life cycle of soybean oil production for biodiesel, the majority energy consumption was contributed by the soybean planting stage, accounting for 62.55% of the total energy consumption.
- Is Jatropha curcas suitable for biodiesel production?
- Among various oil bearing seeds, Jatropha curcas has been found more suitable for biodiesel production as it has been developed scientifically to give better yield and productivity . This non-edible oil is explored as a source for biodiesel production without compromising the food industry , .
- How long does it take to make biodiesel from Jatropha curcas oil?
- About 95% of Jatropha biodiesel was obtained after 120 min. Syam et al. have also developed a two step process for generating biodiesel from Jatropha curcas oil which contains a very high level of free fatty acids.
- Can heterogeneous catalysts be used for transesterification of soybean and Jatropha curcas oils?
- This work reported new experimental data on the transesterification of soybean and Jatropha curcas oils using heterogeneous catalysts. Results show that the use of KSF clay and Amberlyst 15 as catalysts may be promising, as around 70 wt% of FAME yield was obtained at relatively mild conditions and short reaction times.
- How to produce biodiesel?
- The production of oil seeds, Transesterification of vegetable oils with short-chain alcohols is used to produce biodiesel. In the biodiesel. Under optimum condition, at molar ratio 1:6 in the presence of 0.5% NaOH and 60°C reaction temperature and 350 rpm approximately 99.1% biodiesel yield was obtained.
- Is biodiesel competing for resources with the food industry?
- Currently, the most common feedstock for biodiesel production is edible oils such as soybean, rapeseed, canola, sunflower, palm, coconut and also corn oil. However, this practice has raised objections from various organizations, claiming that biodiesel is competing for resources with the food industry.
- What oils are used in biodiesel production?
- Fatty acid methyl ester There are different types of oils and fats that may be used as feedstocks for biodiesel production. These include various oils such as babassu, canola, coconut, cottonseed, jatropha, linseed, olive, palm, peanut, rapeseed, safflower, soybean, and sunflower.
