The consumption of edible oil is very high in the country and still the indigenous production does not meet the
demand and considerable amount of edible oil is imported. Also, it is not advisable to divert these sources for biodiesel
production. On the other hand, the non-edible oil resources could be a solution for biodiesel production. Non-edible oil from the
plant seeds is the most promising alternative fuel for internal combustion engine because it is renewable, environment friendly,
non-toxic, biodegradable has no sulphur and aromatics, has favourable combustion value and higher cetane number.
