Abstract

The world is confronted with serious problems like the fossil fuel depletion and environmental degradation. Fossil fuels in near future will become rare due to its indiscriminate extraction and consumption. Therefore, biodiesel is considered as a promising option as they are clean renewable fuels and best substitute for diesel fuel in any compression ignition engine. There is a best source as a raw material that is calophyllum inophyllum (honne) oil for biodiesel production. As the oil yield of various oil sources for biodiesel feedstock Palm oil has potential of high productivity about 5950 liters per hectare, and followed by honne oil which have productivity of about 4500 liters per hectare. Our study is focused on the production of biodiesel by tranesterification and by thermal cracking and comparing the properties of these.
