The global ethyl soyate ester market is witnessing substantial growth, driven primarily by the rising adoption of biodiesel as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels. Ethyl soyate ...

The way most people talk about biofuels, you’d think they were a brand-new invention. But using natural products for fuel is an idea as old as the hills, as this highly selective timeline demonstrates ...

Today biodiesel is made by the batch, a naturally less efficient way for processes to run. A continuous process would be less expensive to run, easier to manage and need less storage and product ...

A bioengineering development could lead to a cheaper route to products derived from plant biomass. Researchers have redirected fatty acid metabolic pathways in the bacterium Escherichia coli to ...

Beans, sunflower seeds, grain – they can all help. These are the basis of Europe’s nascent biofuel revolution. Instead of vehicles running on expensive imports of fossil fuels, the aim is to power ...

UC Davis chemists have developed a biodiesel production process that uses all of an oilseed plant, like the safflower pictured here. Yields of biodiesel from oilseed crops such as safflower could be ...
