The increasing effort of the global community to reduce dependency on fossil fuels led to an
increase in the production of biodiesel and therefore the oversupply of crude glycerol …

Biosurfactants, widely known as surface-active agents of biological origin, have carved a
niche for themselves in the market due to their unique environment-friendly properties. They …

The booming of biodiesel production has led to the increase in biodiesel by-product or crude
glycerol, which has been proven to be a potential raw material or feedstock to be adopted in …

The increase of environmental concern has led to an increase in biodiesel production, which
also produces high amounts of glycerol. This growing production is causing glycerol prices …

Biodiesel has great potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as an alternative to fossil
