|
| Jamali (Java, Madura, and Bali) power plants in Indonesia [101] | Palm oil | (i) Able to reduce cumulative emissions by 12.1% SO121 (3.2 Mton), 2.2% particulate matter (186.3 thousand tons), 0.6% CO (8.6 thousand tons), 0.2% (839 tons) volatile organic compounds, 0.1% NO222 (19 thousand tons), but there was an increase in CO32 0.8% (49.6 million) | (i) Save up to 32.5 billion USD on externality costs |
| (ii) Biodiesel production costs from waste oil are 0.42 USD/liter, while palm oil is 0.85 USD/liter |
| National Integrated Power Project (NIPP), Nigeria [102] | Jatropha | (i) Increased fuel consumption with less power loss (2%), generating efficiency (1%) | (i) Produce levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) 0.279/kWh and 0.203 USD/kWh |
| (ii) The minimum PBI parameters are 0.082 USD/kWh for a 7-year Jatropha-FOP and 0.052 USD/kWh for a 9-year Jatropha-FCP |
| Power plant in Malaysia [103] | Nyamplung (Calophyllum inophyllum) | (i) B20 produces optimal reduction with 972 kton/year for transportation applications and 1,057 kton/year for power generation. | — |
| Chicken-waste biodiesel-based power generation potential in Bangladesh [104] | Chicken fat waste | (i) With the simulation from the HOMER software, 492,695 liters of biodiesel can be produced annually from chicken skin and converted into electricity of 883 MWh/year. | (i) The operating cost is 188,062 USD/year, and the energy production cost is 0.214 USD/kWh. |
| (ii) There was a reduction of 70.3% in greenhouse gases in the region. |
| The potential for biodiesel-based power generation in Brazil [105] | Soybean oil, palm oil, used cooking oil | (i) The increase in the specific fuel consumption is proportional to the increase in the concentration of biodiesel | — |
| (ii) The addition of 50% biodiesel mixture made the specific consumption value 4.9–8.7% higher than B4 and 2.7–4.3% higher than B20. |
