| Abstract | Biodiesel is an alternative fuel for diesel engines that is gaining attention all over the world. Its primary advantages deal with it being one of the most renewable fuels currently available and it is also non-toxic and biodegradable. It can also be used directly in most diesel engines without requiring extensive engine modifications. Besides, the clear decreases in petroleum fallback in Yemen we have to search for alternatives, the biodiesel is an important alternative to reduce petroleum dependency in Yemen and for this reason our effort is focused on studying the possibility of producing Jatroph Curcas biodiesel and testing the resulting crude oil. Moreover, the paper focuses on the characteristics of "Jatropha Curcas", Biodiesel production technology, Production Process of Jatropha Biodiesel, quality and specifications as to the ASTM standards. |
