India collaborated with China and the UK to develop a superhydrophobic activated carbon catalyst aimed at reducing the production costs of biodiesel. This collaboration resulted in a catalyst derived from biomass, significantly lowering the cost of biodiesel production to approximately 37 cents per litre from the previous ₹100. The catalyst's development marks a significant advancement in making sustainable energy solutions more economically viable and accessible, potentially impacting global efforts towards renewable energy adoption.
