Abstract

Energy in the transportation sector has become a hot issue all over the world because it can affect the energy security of nations. Finding a new type of energy to replace fossil energy is a top concern of many countries, including biofuels. Over the past two decades, there have been many studies on the use of biodiesel and its mix for diesel engines, the results are very positive. In Vietnam, there have also been studies on the use of biodiesel and its mixes on road transport vehicles. However, in the field of waterway transport, there has not been any specific research. Through a comprehensive synthesis of the application situation and research directions in the world, as well as the ability to produce biodiesel in Vietnam, the article wishes to create a premise to develop more research to find develop new technology solutions to apply clean fuels, especially biofuels on the domestic fleet, in line with the development trend of the world on the use of biodiesel fuel.
