Oil from oilseeds such as rapeseed, corn oil or sunflower oil, needs to be esterified to reduce its viscosity close to that of diesel before use in a diesel engine. The oil from oilseeds cannot be regarded as a potentially economic byproduct in the same way as sugarcane bagasse, a byproduct of sugar manufacture used as feed stock for manufacture of car alcohol fuel, or straw from cereals, used as fuel in boilers, are so regarded.
The performance of such wet biomass (animal waste) systems is outlined in Agriculture and Autonomous Power Supply, EOLSS on-line, 2002, and summarized in Table 3. Autonomous power supply must also include human and animal power (as discussed in Human and Animal Powered Machinery, EOLSS on-line, 2002) which, although of great relevance to small farms in the poorest regions, is otherwise declining in relative importance.
