Among renewable energy resources, Biodiesel fuel made from rapeseed is of special importance in Europe. Economical, technological, ecological and toxicological arguments have been advanced implying that, at present, Biodiesel is at best just a "niche" product that can only compete with traditional fossil diesel fuel because of significant tax incentives. Given the present state of knowledge in these very different areas, the decisive question to be asked is whether the competitiveness, and thus marketability, of Biodiesel can be enhanced by biotechnological manipulations of the rape plant.

Industrial Uses of Vegetable Oils offers new insights into these important (and growing) products of vegetable oils. The author focuses on recent research and development of new industrial products, including the use of vegetable oils in paint and coatings, printing inks, engine oils, and biodiesel for heating and engine applications. The book discusses whether or not vegetable-based engine oils and biodiesel are practical or not. Topics also include the genetic modification of seed oils, developments in biodegradable grease, vegetable oils-based polyols, the development of biodiesel and soy composites, and the synthesis of surfactants from vegetable oil feedstocks.

This book discusses vegetable oil based biolubricants and their applications in the power distribution industry. Vegetable oil based lubricants offer significant advantages over petroleum-based lubricants, including biodegradability, cost-effectiveness, renewability, and lower environmental effects. This book provides a detailed literature survey of modified vegetable oils. It discusses the physical and chemical properties of vegetable oil, and their effects on its applications in tribology. The book discusses additives and enhancements to make vegetable oils suitable for use as lubricating oils and transformer oils in power plants and power distribution grids. The contents of the book will be useful to researchers and professionals as well as policy makers and standards agencies.
