Abstract

The use of renewable energy is an important issue that is being promoted internationally at this time considering the supply of fossil energy is increasingly depleting and requires a very long time to be renewed. One of the uses of renewable energy that is being promoted is the use of biodiesel as a substitute for diesel fuel. This utilization is carried out by mixing biodiesel with diesel with quantity in accordance with the rules that have been applied in each country. That is why the biodiesel supply chain must be described in detail to obtain minimum economic costs and environmental costs. This paper presents a comprehensive review on current biodiesel supply chain models. A review on current state of biodiesel supply chain concludes by highlighting the unaddressed area or the gaps existing in the current literature by suggesting future research in biodiesel supply chain specifically in area case study in Indonesia.
