Energy is an indispensable and imperative key for financial action. Constructing a strong base of vitality asset is an essential for sustainable economic and social improvement of a nation. Therefore, it is necessary to search for an substitute fuel to fulfil the viyality request. Biodiesel obtained from plants have increased enthusiasm for last 20 years as a substitute fuel for diesel. In current text, an audit has been coordinated to accentureate diverse parts of biodiesel plants, potential solution of utilizing biodiesel, engine characterization and diagnostics including performance, emission, combustion, material compatibility and wear analysis, economic viability of biodiesel & life cycle analysis. Concerning about engine characteristics and diagnostics it can be ensured that biodiesel improves engine performance and emission characteristics with little engine modifications like injection parameters, exhaust gas recirculation etc. The review holds good on the possibility of using biodiesel in diesel engines, but still it is not economically viable and needs more research and technology advancement to make it competitive with other conventional fuels.
