A review on thermal conversion of plant oil (edible and inedible) into green fuel using carbon-based nanocatalyst

Renewable diesels (e.g., biodiesel and green diesel) have emerged as a sustainable alternative to petrodiesel as a means of meeting the growing demand for fuel without damaging the environment. Although renewable diesels are composed of different chemical compositions to petrodiesel, they provide si...
