Popis: Ograničene količine nafte postale su bitnim čimbenikom intenziviranja pronalaženja i uporabe alternativnih vrsta goriva. Biodizelsko gorivo koristi se za pogon dizel motora, a proizvodi se iz biljnih ulja, životinjskih masti te rabljenog jestivog ulja. Uz značajan ekonomski, gospodarski i strateški interes proizvodnje, proizvodnja i primjena biodizelskoga goriva poglavito je značajna s ekološkog aspekta. Također, dobri uvjeti za proizvodnju uljane repice u Republici Hrvatskoj su od velike važnosti za proizvodnju biodizelskog goriva te smanjenja njegova uvoza kao i povećanja mogućnosti zapošljavanja u poljoprivrednoj proizvodnji i u pogonima za proizvodnju biodizelskog goriva. U radu se daje pregled osnovnih značajki biodizelskog goriva, koristi uporabe te mogućnosti proizvodnje biodizela u Republici Hrvatskoj kao i utjecaja uporabe biodizela na okoliš.
Limited quantities of oil have become an important factor toward a more intensive search and use of alternative fuels. Biodiesel is used in diesel engines, and is manufactured from vegetable oils, animal fats and recycled cooking oils. With significant economic, commercial and strategic interests of production, the production and use of biodiesel is particularly important from an environmental point of view. Also, favourable conditions for the production of rapeseed in Croatia are of great importance in the production of biodiesel and reducing its imports, as well as to increase employment opportunities in the agricultural production and in the production of biodiesel. This paper provides an overview of basic features of biodiesel fuel, benefits and production capabilities in the Republic of Croatia as well as the impact of biodiesel on the environment.
