eng	EPOXIDATION OF METHYL ESTERS OF CAMELINA SATIVA OIL AS A SECONDGENERATION BIOFUEL	Current issue is searching for renewable sources for production of various materials or energy, which are currently produced from crude oil. Triacylglycerides, contained in the vegetable oils, animal fats or waste frying oils, are one of the possible renewable sources and can be transformed to ester by transesterification. The other product is glycerol, which has many applications in chemistry, food and pharmaceutical industries. The esters can be transformed to epoxides, which have many applications such as (i) bio-lubricants in means of transport (additives to oils) or (ii) raw material for bio-polymers, higher alcohols, olefins, glycols, polyesters and carbonates. These chemicals are currently produced from crude oil.	EPOXIDATION; METHYL ESTERS; CAMELINA SATIVA; OIL; BIOFUEL
