The Present State of and a Suggested Inserting Point for Biodiesel Production Industrialization in China

As China is growing up rapidly, she is facing growth and form a harmonious society, energy supply, problems of energy shortage and fuel pollution. Among many solutions, an ideal renewable clean fuel, biodiesel has great potential to replace or partially replace fossil oil. By analyzing the present state of biodiesel development world wide, the agriculture structure of China, the characteristics of China's geography, and resources distribution in China, it is concluded that moving forward biodiesel industrialization benefits China in getting one more energy resource as well as reducing air pollution, though it has to be supported by the government with proper policy.
