Overview of catalytic methods for production of next generation biodiesel from natural oils and fats

  • Published:
Russian Journal of Physical Chemistry B Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Production of biodiesel from natural oils and fats can be achieved using various technologies briefly discussed in this review. A particular appealing concept for production of green diesel is selective catalytic deoxygenation of renewables leading to diesel fuel products. This reaction can be performed over Pd on active carbon supports with saturated and unsaturated fatty acids and their derivatives.
