Abstract

The global rise in demand for crude oil and its derivatives has stemmed from population growth and rapid industrialization. To address the environmental and energy issues, most countries are attempting to utilize biodiesel as a replacement for mineral diesel. Vegetable oils, yellow grease, animal fats, and leftover cooking oils are used to produce biodiesel. Its non-toxic characteristics, higher biodegradability, heating value, and minimal pollutant emission are just some of its benefits. The biodiesel production from tree-based oil (TBO) has incorporated several advantages over the other sources. The afforestation potentials, community livelihood development, and lessened dependency on foreign resources and their emissions are the known direct benefits. Mahua (Madhuca indica), a member of the Sapotaceae family, is native to India and other Asian countries have the potential to achieve several goals of sustainable development with its multiple products. This study provides a single junction to learn about the Mahua. The Scientometric analysis revealed that the Mahua is an attractive source for biodiesel production. The review focuses on illuminating the various processes for bio-oil extraction from mahua seed, the production of biodiesel from Mahua bio-oil with various catalysts, and the properties of biodiesel with emission analysis and engine performance. The possible value addition for the by-products of biodiesel production as well as the various products of mahua was also included. The economic analysis and the potential of achieving multiple Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) like 1,2,3,5,7,8,9,11,12,13,15 were also detailed to substantiate the capacity of mahua as a reliable energy and sustainable source.
