Abstract

Renewable fuels, as an alternative fuel, can be produced from different biomass types such as vegetable oils of various origins, waste cooking oils and fats. The most common biofuel is FAME biodiesel that produced via transesterification of vegetable oils. Due to many disadvantages of FAME biodiesel new technologies are under investigation for the production of second generation biodiesel such as Fischer–Tropsch and hydrotreated vegetable oils, waste cooking oils and fats. In the present study the main properties that specify the quality of renewable diesel fuels were examined and a detailed comparison between different types of these fuels was performed. The renewable diesel fuels examined include FAME biodiesel, green diesel, Fischer–Tropsch diesel, hybrid diesel and white diesel.
