The LCA GHG emission in the production and combustion of palm oil biodiesel at 1,601 kg CO2/ tonne of biodiesel is 2.6 times lower than that for fossil diesel. The LCA GHG emission reduction savings is, thus, 62% and exceeds the threshold value of 35% needed by EU for renewable sources to qualify for use as biofuels. Palm biodiesel has a great potential to improve its carbon balance further, exceeding 62% savings, by utilizing its waste products arising from oil palm cultivation and during palm biodiesel production.
