By Bryan Sims | January 03, 2012/Israel-based Evogene Ltd. has launched a wholly owned subsidiary, Evofuel Ltd., to accelerate the development and commercialization of castor bean varieties in Brazil for biodiesel and biojet fuel production, as well as to expand biofuel research and development activities located in Israel.
According to a statement released by Evogene, the impetus behind establishing the subsidiary is due to the need for diversifying feedstock supply to fulfill worldwide demand of biodiesel, which currently relies mainly on edible oils such as soybeans and canola. Leer más »
Biodiesel Industry Producing Record Volumes.
U.S. biodiesel production reached a new monthly high in June of 81 million gallons, marking a third consecutive month of record volumes. Biodiesel production in the first half of 2011 has already eclipsed production for all of 2010.

(Reuters) – Rising biodiesel production may cut Brazil’s 2011 soyoil exports and Argentina’s soyoil shipments will also be lower than potential, Hamburg-based oilseeds analysts Oil World said on Tuesday.
Brazil, the world’s No. 2 soyoil exporter, may sell only 1.50 million tonnes of soyoil overseas in the 2011 calendar year, down from 1.56 million tonnes in 2010, Oil World forecasts. Leer más »

By Stephan Nielsen – May 6, 2011.Archer-Daniels-Midland Co. (ADM), the largest grain processor, and Cargill Inc. are spearheading a push to invest about $560 million in new biofuel refineries in Brazil, a country that already has twice the capacity it needs.
The U.S. agribusinesses have joined Brazilian companies that are expanding facilities in a bet the government will double to 10 percent the amount of biofuel that must be blended into petroleum-based diesel, driving up demand overnight. Leer más »

Iowa may be the nation’s renewable fuels leader, but Iowans won’t see most of the profits from the state’s biofuel plants.
Out-of-state investors already own a majority of projected ethanol and biodiesel production in Iowa and they’re likely to acquire more.
Though farmers triggered much of the state’s ethanol boom, plants primarily controlled by out-of-state or foreign investors account for at least 57 percent of Iowa’s renewable fuels, an analysis by The Des Moines Sunday Register shows. Leer más »

By National Biodiesel Board | January 12, 2011/ NBB CEO Joe Jobe is among the five speakers presenting during the biodiesel symposium at the 2011 North American International Auto Show.
National Biodiesel BoardThe North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit has long been known as the event of the year for the latest vehicle technologies and innovations, setting the pace and direction for the world’s economic future. What more fitting venue, then, to also highlight the fuel that will be used increasingly now and in the future to power these vehicles in a cleaner, greener, more sustainable manner: biodiesel—America’s first advanced biofuel.

Aaron Socha, and Jason Sello conducted research to streamline biodiesel production.
Two Brown chemists have developed a more efficient way to produce biodiesel from waste vegetable oil.
Using two catalysts common in organic chemistry, Assistant Professor of Chemistry Jason Sello and Postdoctoral Fellow Aaron Socha were able to synthesize biodiesel in a single reaction vessel, according to a University press release. Their findings were published in the Oct. 7 issue of the journal Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry. Leer más »
