Peanut oil is rich in oleic and linoleic acids, making it well-suited for biodiesel. Its low saturated fat content ensures better cold flow properties than many tropical oils. The high triglyceride content allows for efficient conversion with minimal soap formation. The GlobeCore USB plant enhances efficiency by adjusting catalyst levels and optimizing temperature for various oil qualities, ensuring consistent fuel output regardless of minor composition differences.
