Biodiesel production as well as consumption in the European nations are augmenting, taking into account the uncertainties connected to fossil fuel reserves and the related natural effects of their use. This biofuel can be generated from numerous oil-rich feedstocks and by using different processing technologies. Therefore, the techno-economic assessment for biodiesel production becomes of high relevance to make critical decisions under uncertainties that are essential for the successful implementation of the process on an industrial scale. The economic aspects of using different triglycerides and non-triglycerides based lipid biomass as well as the processing technologies for biodiesel production are thoroughly discussed and compared in this chapter
