1) Global challenges like environmental pollution, global warming, and fossil fuel depletion have increased focus on producing green and sustainable fuels like biodiesel. 2) Conventional biodiesel production techniques using mechanical stirring have limitations like long reaction times, high energy usage, and lower yields. 3) New process intensification techniques like ultrasound, microwave irradiation, and hydrodynamic cavitation can overcome these limitations and produce biodiesel faster with less energy and higher yields. 4) Further research is still needed to optimize these techniques and evaluate biodiesel and biodiesel blend performance in engines.
