Biodiesel Wastewater Treatment: Harnessing Carbon and Recovering Valuable Compounds

Biodiesel offers a cleaner-burning alternative to petroleum diesel, but its production generates CO2 and hazardous wastewater, requiring additional steps for true sustainability. Researchers at the University of Michigan are refining a process that captures CO2 while treating biodiesel wastewater, simultaneously producing valuable co-products like fuels and green chemicals. Biodiesel production transforms fats—such as vegetable oils, […]
