An approach to market biofuel from waste castor bean shell

The objectives of this study are to utilize the waste of castor bean shell as biofuel source, to investigate market demand of biofuel, and to perform economic analysis on production of biofuel. The main concerns in this study are to reduce the carbon emission which contributes to the Green House Eff...
