NOVELTY - The invention claims a method to generate low energy consumption biological diesel oil. It belongs to biological oil compounding field. In publicized technology, there are problems that the reaction time of biological enzyme catalysis needs long time and the homogeneous acid-base catalysis generates large quantity of waste water and overcritical method consumes a lot of power.
