Exergy Analysis Of Jatropha And Microalgal Biodiesel Production Plants

Estimates of crude oil reserves show that its exhaustion will occur in 2047 at a rate of 83 million barrels per day compared to an extraction rate of approximately 98 million barrels/day in 2010. As a result of this, present research and developments are geared towards sustainable production of liqu...
