4. • BIOFUEL, any fuel that is
derived from biomass—that
is, plant or algae material or animal waste. Since such
feedstock material can be replenished readily, biofuel is
considered to be a source of renewable energy, unlike fossil
fuels such as petroleum, coal, and natural gas.
• BIODIESEL : is a green fuel that can be used in diesel
engines. A methyl or ethyl ester of fatty acids produced
from non-edible vegetable oils, acid oil, used cooking oil or
animal fat and bio-oil;
• Biodiesel meeting the BIS specification of IS15607:2016.
ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY FUEL
6. GOOD WASTE TO
WEALTH
• Food authority has notified Food Safety and Standards
(Licensing and Registration) First Amendment
Regulation, 2017 on October 24, 2017 which prescribes
the limit for TPCs to be maximum 25% beyond which
the vegetable oil is not suitable for use.
• From 30 march 2019 (FSSAI) has directed Food Safety
Commissioners to ensure that Food Business Operators
(FBOs), whose consumption of edible oils for frying is
more than 50 litres per day, stop reusing the oil more
than three times.

7. ANNADATA TO URJADATA
• 3 E Strategy
– Educating both consumers and FBOs about
health consequences of ‘used cooking oil’
– Enforcement
– Ecosystem for RUCO initiative
MAKE IN INDIA SKILL DEVELOPMENT SWACHH BHARAT
8. Mobile App
• RUCO is equipped with
technological support such
as GPS,
• traffic monitoring,
• Unified Payment Interface,
• a toll-free number and
• a web-based IT solution
for complete end-to-end
traceability.
FROM WASTE MANAGEMENT TO AIR POLLUTION
9. Need for regulation
Dirty UCO can be removed from the food chain.
Inappropriate UCO disposal.
Potential feedstock for biodiesel
Harmful effects of reUCO
• High temperature and moisture
• Total Polar Compound
• Thickening
• becomes acidic and darkens in
colour
• Bacterial contamination
• Rancid
21. Parameters Affecting Transesterification
• temperature
• pressure,
• Reaction time,
• rate of agitation,
• type of alcohol used
• molar ratio of alcohol to
oil,
• type and concentration of
catalyst used
• concentration of moisture
• FFA in the feed oil.

31. Future prospects
• EOI will ensure that Rs 51/ liter is paid for Biodiesel for the
first year, Rs 52.7 for the second year and Rs 54.5 for the
third year. The Oil companies will also bear the cost of
transportation and GST for the first year.
• The National Policy on Biofuels 2018, has set a blending
target of 5% for biodiesel blending in diesel by 2030.
• Prime Minister has given a target to the Ministry of
Petroleum and Natural Gas to bring down import dependency
of oil products by 2022, and this can be achieved by
enhancing production, improving energy efficiency,
promoting conservation and encouraging alternate fuels.
• It is also estimated that India can supplement 41.14% of its
total diesel fuel consumption.

Who knows when you will get a chance to
use it to fuel your own shipment..
