Abstract
The discovery of the diesel engine by Rudolf Diesel in the mid-19th century
is where the origin of what finally came to be known as “biodiesel” lies. Since then,
numerous approaches have been suggested to utilize pure or blended, straight vegetable
oils or their derivatives for the production of biodiesel. The availability and viability of
biodiesel, as well as its relevance, history, technical properties, and prospective
replacement for diesel fuel in internal combustion engines including various types of
biodiesel fuel additives, are all discussed in this chapter.
