[15-16]. In addition, edible vegetable oil for biodiesel competes with food sustenance and land use for food production [17]. Furthermore, the cost and availability are among the main disadvantages of edible vegetable oils foror no o
Biodiesel from vegetable oils - ScienceDirect
The vegetable oils used as lipid feedstock for biodiesel production highly depend on regional climate that is rapeseed oil in European countries and Canada, soybean oil in United States, and palm oil in tropical countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia. Coconut oil is another lipid feedstock used for synthesis of biodiesel in coastal areas.
Biodisel Development in Nigeria: Prospects and Challenges
Biodiesel fuel can be produced from oil seed plants such as rapeseeds, sunflower, canola, Jatropha curcas, soyabeans oil, mustard, palm, coconut, waste
Potential of Waste Vegetable Oil for Biodiesel in Nigeria
Biodiesel is one of these sustainable fuels with countless advantages over conventional used fuels (Aderemi and Hameed, 2010;Glisic and Orlovic, 2014).Generally, biodiesel is obtained from oil

Overview of Biodiesel Production from Algae in Nigeria
Biodiesel is made by chemically-reacting lipids, typically vegetable oil or animal fat (tallow), and alcohol. It is a clean burning renewable fuel made through a chemical process which converts oils and fats of natural origin into fatty acid and methyl esters (FAME) [5] (Smart Fuels LLC, 2009) 3.1 SOURCES OF BIODIESEL

Biodiesel production from used vegetable oil and CaO catalyst
Due to its accessibility, culinary used vegetable oil is regarded as a potential source for profitable production of biodiesel. In the present study, the viability of producing biodiesel from used vegetable oil (UVO) by utilizing CaO catalyst (derived from the calcination of chicken eggshell and impregnated with KNO 3 and NaNO 3) was studied.
