This handbook covers the major research streams on both petrodiesel
and biodiesel fuels, building on original research in indexed
journal literature published during the last half-century in three
volumes. Each volume presents chapters on biodiesel fuels at the
macro level including introductory chapters for the handbook at
large, case studies of biodiesel fuels at the micro level, and
petrodiesel fuels, respectively. There are four parts in the first
volume, with chapters focusing on the introductory chapters for the
handbook, biooils, biodiesel fuels, and biodiesel fuel wastes
(glycerol). The four parts in the second volume focus on biodiesel
fuels based on the four generations of feedstocks: edible
feedstocks, nonedible feedstocks, waste feedstocks, and algae.
Finally, the final volume focuses on crude oils, petrodiesel fuels
in general, emissions of petrodiesel fuels, and impact of
petrodiesel fuels on human health. Covers the major research
streams on both the petrodiesel and biodiesel fuels in three
volumes building on the original research in the indexed journal
literature published during the last half-century. Examines biooils
(production, properties, and upgrading), biodiesel production,
biodiesel properties and characterization, biodiesel performance
and emissions, biodiesel catalysts, and biodiesel wastes (glycerol
applications in biohydrogen production, propanediol production).
Discusses health impacts of biodiesel fuels at the macro-level for
biodiesel fuels. Presents case studies on biodiesel production from
edible feedstocks such as soybean oils, nonedible feedstocks such
as jatropha oils, wastes such as waste cooking oils, and algae such
as oils from Chlorella at the micro-level for biodiesel fuels in
the second volume. Reviews desulfurization of petrodiesel fuels,
diesel engines, performance and emissions of petrodiesel fuels,
health impact of petrodiesel fuels, biodegradation of petrodiesel
fuels in soils, electricity production by petrodiesel fuels, and
crude oils (production, properties and characterization, spills and
biodegradation, refining and wastewater treatment, health impact of
crude oil exposure). Ozcan Konur is both a materials scientist and
social scientist by training. He has published around 200 journal
papers, book chapters, and conference papers. He has focused on the
bioenergy and biofuels in recent years. In 2018, he edited
Bioenergy and Biofuels, that brought together the work of over 30
experts in their respective field. He also edited the Handbook of
Algal Science, Technology, and Medicine with a strong section on
the algal biofuels in 2020.
