    Sunflower: Bioenergy Utilization

  • Original language description

    Nowadays, many farmers tend to focus a part of their production on technical crops and/or a utilization of classical crops as main products or byproducts for industrial as well as energy purposes. As for the biomass energy generation, oil crops are primarily used as a substitute for diesel engine fuels thanks to the high energy content in their oils. Similarly, their main product serves as a source for the dye and paint industry. Although there are many different oily crops used for technical purposes,i.e. rape seed (canola), soybeans, and groundnut, sunflower is the major one in many regions. For instance, long-term testing results have proven a feasibility of a regular turbo charged diesel engine operation on raw cold-pressed sunflower oil providedthat the car is equipped with a double fuel tank system. However, liquid biofuels based on chemically derived oily compounds, known as esters, are more suitable as an environmentally friendly diesel substitute for general usage. Methyl- o
