Which economic and environmental factors should be evaluated when scaling up peanut oil biodiesel production?

Key factors include peanut availability, extraction cost, oil yield per hectare, and market demand for biodiesel and byproducts. Environmentally, peanut biodiesel reduces CO₂ emissions and promotes rural energy security. However, cost per liter may be higher than from other feedstocks. The GlobeCore USB plant enhances viability through energy-efficient operation, scalability, and modular design. It reduces chemical waste and labor costs, making commercial-scale peanut biodiesel more feasible and eco-friendly.
