Abstract
⺠Exergetic analysis of a biodiesel production process from Jatropha curcas. ⺠A 95% of the inefficiencies are located in the transesterification reactor. ⺠Exergetic efficiency of the steam generator amounts 37.6%. ⺠Chemical reactions cause most of the irreversibilities of the process. ⺠Exergetic efficiency of the overall process is over 63%.
