Approaches in the utilization of Jatrophacurcas oil as feedstock for biodiesel synthesis: a review

Apprehension about environmental degradation and the diminishing reserve of fossil fuel are the major drives toward search for alternative energy source. The most prominent biofuel employed in recent times in ransportation of vehicles and propelling of machinery are biodiesel and bioethanol. The ut...
