SYNTHESIS OF BIODIESEL FROM VARIOUS SOURCES OF PLANT OILS

"The use of vegetable oils for engine fuels may seem insignificant today. But such oils may become in the course of time as important as the petroleum and coal tar products of the present time" (RudolfDiesel, 1912). Nowadays, environment has been affected seriously by the industrializat...
