The process starts with hydrogenation of backbone double bonds. [[Fatty acid methyl esters can then be produced by transesterification. C16 and C18 diesel fuels arise by hydrogenolysis of the saturated fat.]]
Biodiesel is a fuel made from natural oils like soybean or canola oil through chemical processes that convert them into compounds suitable for engines. It matters because it can be used to power vehicles and trains, offering a renewable alternative to petroleum-based diesel fuel.
