In recent years, there has been a steady increase in the number of solid wastes because of the increasing human population and urbanisation. Solids include industrial waste, agricultural waste, forest waste and waste bio-products. Bioenergy has produced a total 10% participation of energy of global energy production, energy produced from the source of biomass: plants, animal, and organic waste.
In some seeds like Juliform seed, Watermelon Seed oil is prepared and blended together to produce the biodiesel and to check the performance of the biodiesel. The study also includes examination of physical and chemical properties such as pH value, viscosity, density, flash point, fire point and acid values on the produced biodiesel as well as on the conventional diesel for comparison. The study revealed that the properties of the biodiesel are very close to the conventional diesel.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
