A team at the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (Spain) has designed a new simple, energy-efficient process (that also does not require any organic solvents) for the production of renewable diesel from biomass waste. For example, the excessive cleavage of carbon–carbon bonds and subsequent reformation leads to energy losses.
