BIOFUEL PRODUCTION PROCESS FROM EUPHORBIA ANTISYPHILITICA (CANDELILLA) WAX (BIOMASS).

摘要

The present disclosure is related to the production of biofuel from the candelilla wax obtained from the Euphorbia Antisyphilitica plant through chemical synthesis (distillate). This biofuel is derived from a renewable resource such as the Euphorbia Antisyphilitica plant. Furthermore, the biofuel has non-polluting properties for the environment and it can be used as fuel in the different means of transport (air, sea and land) as well as fuel for boilers and water heaters among many other applications. With the advantage that this biofuel contains no sulfur and the production process residues could be used for manufacturing shoe polish, wax for fruit coating, and in electronic and cosmetic applications.
