Driving a Greener Energy Future
Innovating sustainable energy for a cleaner tomorrow
Introduction
Newsad Biobased Process Company was established in 2020, building on more than a decade of academic research conducted by faculty members of the Industrial Research Organization, with a focus on developing knowledge-based and environmentally friendly products. In the same year, the company was recognized as a knowledge-based enterprise by the Vice Presidency for Science and Technology of Iran in the field of bio-based products. Committed to reducing environmental pollution, Newsad develops plant-based fuels and chemical products as sustainable alternatives to conventional fossil-based and chemical materials. Today, the company has earned a distinguished position in replacing traditional chemical and fossil-derived products with innovative bio-based solutions.
Economic, Market & Environmental Advantages
Biodiesel is a proven renewable fuel that delivers measurable economic value, strong market competitiveness, and clear environmental benefits. By reducing greenhouse gas emissions by up to 85% and lowering dependence on fossil fuels, it supports both sustainability and energy security. It is rapidly becoming a strategic alternative to conventional diesel, offering a practical and scalable solution for a cleaner and more resilient energy future.
Biodiesel combines economic, market, and environmental benefits into a sustainable and high-impact fuel solution
Economic Advantages
• Can reduce fuel import costs by 10– 30%, depending on local feedstock availability
• Supports job creation: approximately 1.5–3 times more jobs per unit of energy than fossil diesel
• Improves engine lubrication, reducing maintenance costs by up to 30%
• Allows utilization of waste oils that are 20–50% cheaper than virgin fossil feedstocks
Market Advantages
• Global biodiesel market is growing at ~7–9% CAGR, driven by energy transition policies
• Biodiesel can be blended at 5– 20% (B5–B20) with no engine modification
• Helps companies meet regulatory fuel mandates requiring 5–15% renewable content
• Increases ESG and sustainability ratings, which can improve access to capital by up to 20%
Environmental Advantages
• Reduces lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by 50–85% compared to petroleum diesel
• Lowers particulate matter emissions by up to 47% and carbon monoxide by up to 48%
• Contains ~0% sulfur, compared to up to 15 ppm in ultra-low sulfur diesel
• Biodegrades 4–5 times faster than conventional diesel, reducing spill impact
