Le développement du Diester® en France*

Abstract

The results of a study on the externalities and induced effects of Diester production are presented here. They show how much such an activity falls under sustainable development. A recall on the European directives of 2003 and on the French biofuels plan is followed by the industrial projects of the French oilseed producers. The critical volumes necessary to these units and their logistic optimization, as well upstream as dowstream, are discussed. The supply in raw materials is examined.
