Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Biodiesel is a biofuel obtained from vegetable or animal oils and fats. These are mainly composed of triglycerides but can contain significant amounts of water and free fatty acids, depending on their origin. Biodiesel is generally produced by transesterification, with or without catalyst, by enzymatic interesterification, by microemulsification, or by pyrolysis. Transesterification (with acid, basic, or enzymatic homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysts) is the most frequently used reaction. The operating parameters, including the types and concentrations of alcohol and catalyst, the reaction temperature and duration as well as the agitation intensity, must be optimized for successful application. In general, biodiesel is characterized by a higher viscosity and a lower heating value than those of petrodiesel. To improve these physical properties, petrodiesel or additives can be added to biodiesel.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
