Advancements in green diesel production for energy sustainability: a comprehensive bibliometric analysis.

Green diesel as a second-generation biofuel has received enormous attention owing to the huge demand for renewable fuel for addressing the net zero target in 2050. This study examines the development of green diesel research through a bibliometric analysis. The state-of-the-art green diesel research is studied based upon 1285 documents (1153 articles and 132 reviews) retrieved from the Scopus database related to the used keywords.

The application of biosurfactant-producing bacteria immobilized in PVA/SA/bentonite bio-composite for hydrocarbon-contaminated soil bioremediation.

Oil spills that contaminate the environment can harm the surrounding ecosystem. The oil contains petroleum hydrocarbon which is toxic to the environment hence it needs to be removed. The use of bacteria as remediation media was modified by immobilizing into a matrix hence the bacteria can survive in harsh conditions.

Microbiome profile of soil and rhizosphere plants growing in traditional oil mining land in Wonocolo, Bojonegoro, Indonesia.

Traditional oil mining poses negative effects on the environment through pollution with crude oil. One of the traditional mining sites in Wonocolo, Bojonegoro, Indonesia was reported to contaminate the surrounding area with a high level of crude oil. Therefore, this study aims to examine the microbiome profiles of contaminated soil and the rhizosphere of naturalized plants growing at the sites.
