(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).

This third volume of the handbook presents a representative sample
of the population papers in the field of petrodiesel fuels.
Following the substantial public concerns on the adverse impact of
the emissions from petrodiesel fuels on the environment and human
health, the research has intensified in the areas related to the
reduction of these adverse effects. Thus, bioremediation of spills
from crude oils and petrodiesel fuels at sea and soils as well as
desulfurization of petrodiesel fuels have emerged as publicly
important research areas. Similarly, the emissions from diesel fuel
exhausts, due to their adverse effects on both human health and
environment, have been researched more in recent years. These
emissions cover particulate emissions, aerosol emissions, and NOx
emissions. Research on the adverse impact of petrodiesel fuel
exhaust emissions on human health has primarily progressed along
the lines of respiratory illnesses, cancer, and other illnesses,
such as cardiovascular illnesses, brain illnesses, and reproductive
system illnesses, through human, animal, and in vitro studies. It
is clear that these illnesses caused by the petrodiesel fuel
exhaust emissions have been one of the most significant reasons to
develop alternative biodiesel fuels. Part IX presents a
representative sample of the population papers in the field of
crude oils covering major research fronts. It covers crude oil
spills in general, crude oil spills and their cleanup, properties
and removal of crude oils, biodegradation of crude oil-contaminated
soils, and crude oil recovery besides an overview paper. Part X

This first volume of the Handbook of Biodiesel and Petrodiesel
Fuels presents a representative sample of the population papers in
the field of biodiesel fuels in general. Part I provides an
overview of the research field on both biodiesel and petrodiesel
fuels highlighting primary and secondary research fronts in these
fields. Part II presents a representative sample of the population
papers in the field of biooils covering major research fronts. The
research on the biooils is a fundamental part of the research on
the biodiesel fuels. The research in this field has intensified in
recent years with the application of advanced catalytic
technologies and nanotechnologies in both production and upgrading
of biooils. It covers pyrolysis, hydrothermal liquefaction, and
upgrading, and characterization and properties of biooils besides
an overview of the research field. Part III presents a
representative sample of the population papers in the field of
biodiesel fuels in general covering major research fronts. The
research in this field has progressed in the lines of production,
properties, and emissions of biodiesel fuels. As in the case of
biooils, catalysts and additives play a crucial role for the
biodiesel fuels. It covers biomass-based catalyst-assisted
biodiesel production, enzymatic biodiesel production, additives in
biodiesel production, properties, characterization, performance,
and policies of biodiesel fuels besides an overview of the research
field. Part IV presents a representative sample of the population

This second volume of the Handbook of Biodiesel and Petrodiesel
Fuels presents a representative sample of the population papers in
the field of feedstock-specific biodiesel fuels. The research on
feedstocks for biodiesel fuels has first focused on the edible oils
as first-generation biodiesel fuels. However, the public concerns
about the competition with foods based on these feedstocks and
adverse impact on the ecological diversity and deforestation have
resulted in the exploration of nonedible-oil-based biodiesel fuels
as second-generation biodiesel fuels in the first instance. Due to
the ecological and cost benefits of treating wastes, waste
oil-based biodiesel fuels as third-generation biodiesel fuels have
emerged. Furthermore, following a series of influential review
papers, the research has focused on the algal oil-based biodiesel
fuels in recent years. Since the cost of feedstocks in general
constitutes 85% of the total biodiesel production costs, the
research focused more on improving biomass and lipid productivity
in these research fields. Furthermore, since water, CO2, and
nutrients (primarily N and P) have been major ingredients for the
algal biomass and lipid production, the research has also
intensified in the use of wastewaters and flue gases for algal
biomass production to reduce the ecological burdens and the
production costs. Part 1 presents a representative sample of the
population papers in the field of edible oil-based biodiesel fuels
covering major research fronts. It covers soybean oil-based
biodiesel fuels, palm oil-based biodiesel fuels, and rapeseed
oil-based biodiesel fuels as case studies besides an overview
paper. Part 2 presents a representative sample of the population
papers in the field of nonedible oil-based biodiesel fuels covering
major research fronts. It covers Jatropha oil-based biodiesel
fuels, polanga oil-based biodiesel fuels, and moringa oil-based
biodiesel fuels as case studies besides an overview paper. Part 3
presents a representative sample of the population papers in the
field of waste oil-based biodiesel fuels covering major research
fronts. It covers wastewater sludge-based biodiesel fuels, waste
cooking oil-based biodiesel fuels, and microbial oil-based
biodiesel fuels as case studies besides an overview paper. Part 4
presents a representative sample of the population papers in the
field of algal oil-based biodiesel fuels covering major research
fronts. It covers algal biomass production in general, algal
biomass production in wastewaters, algal lipid production,
hydrothermal liquefaction of algal biomass, algal lipid extraction,
and algal biodiesel production besides an overview paper. This book
will be useful to academics and professionals in the fields of
Energy Fuels, Chemical Engineering, Physical Chemistry,
Biotechnology and Applied Microbiology, Environmental Sciences, and
Thermodynamics. 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', that brought together the work of over 30
experts in their respective field. He also edited 'Handbook of
Algal Science, Technology, and Medicine' with a strong section on
the algal biofuels in 2020.
Handbook of Algal Science, Microbiology, Technology and Medicine
provides a concise introduction to the science, biology, technology
and medical use of algae that is structured on the major research
fronts of the last four decades, such as algal structures and
properties, algal biomedicine, algal genomics, algal toxicology,
and algal bioremediation, algal photosystems, algal ecology, algal
bioenergy and biofuels. It also covers algal production for
biomedicine, algal biomaterials, and algal medicinal foods within
these primary sections. All chapters are authored by the leading
researchers in their respective research fields. Our society
currently faces insurmountable challenges in the areas of
biomedicine and energy in the face of increasing global population
and diminishing natural resources as well as the growing
environmental and economic concerns, such as global warming,
greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. Algae offer a way to
deal with these challenges and concerns for both sustainable and
environment friendly bioenergy production and in biomedicine
through the development of crucial biotechnology.
