“…Namely, oxygen content of COME2 did not improve enough oxygen content of blend, also COME10 was worsen flow properties, CO emissions from using COME5 was reduced owing to oxygen content despite it ruined to flow properties. To exhibited results for CO emission parameters were similar with reported various studies by other researcher [1,2,9,[11][12]14].…”

“…Also, Tex (exhaust gas temperature) and CO emissions increased, smoke and NOX emissions decreased, even HC emission undecided on exhaust emission parameters. Balakrishnan et al [2] analyzed to combustion and emissions of using biodiesel from used cooking oil as fuel for diesel engine. As the results, ignition delay generally decreased, and combustion duration decreased at low loads despite its increased at high and full loads.…”

In the study, engine performance and exhaust emissions of diesel fuel and cotton oil methyl ester (COME) blends at proportions of 2%, %5 and 10% (v/v) have been investigated. The engine was fuelled with COME-diesel blends and pure diesel when running the engine at six different engine speed (1000, 1200, 1400, 1600, 1800, 2000 rpm) and at full load. Test results are presented engine torque and specific fuel consumption (SCF) as engine performance, and Carbon monoxide (CO), Hydrocarbon (HC), smoke and nitrogen oxides (NOx) as exhaust emissions. As result, this study is show that although engine performance decreased with COME adding to diesel fuel, exhaust emissions was generally improved.

Energy recovery from waste biomasses has become the most important solution, in addition to find suitable alternative fuel rather than the usual mineral fuel. In this study used vegetable oil biodiesel has been used as an injected fuel and waste wood chips as an inducted fuel to generate producer gas in a modified double walled fixed bed downdraft gasifier, and to study the fuel's performance in an Internal Combustion Engine. The effect of compression ratio on the engine performance is critically examined with different load while the fuel injection pressure and fuel injection timing has been kept constant throughout the run. The result shows that the brake thermal efficiency gradually increases with increase in compression ratio with simultaneous decrease in brake specific energy consumption; also the remarkable emission reduction ensures the suitability of mixed fuel at higher possible compression ratio without any modifications in the engine. It is concluded that the ignition delay, noise pollution, and engine vibration limit the compression ratio to 18 as a maximum. V C 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

“…Transesterification is an organic procedure of altering bid branched triglyceride molecules of plant fats and oils into minor molecules of straight chain, just like the size of diesel fuel molecules. This method takes place due to the reaction between alcohol (Methanol-CH 3 OH) and vegetable oil under the impact of the catalyst (NaOH or KOH) [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

The biodiesels obtained till now are not sufficient to encounter the worldwide requirement of fuel therefore exploring other possible sources as an auxiliary for conservative fuels is a requirement.…”

 Abstract: presently, the world is grieving with lack of energy sources, since the petroleum reserve are being depleted very soon, moreover the world's temperature is rapidly increasing resulting from the emissions of automobile. More consideration should be given to this issue so, the researchers across the globe making difficult trials to find the best substitute energy reserve which swaps the fossil diesel petroleum. This article deals with manilkara zapota methyl ester, the biodiesel taken from a non-edible feed stock Manilkara Zapota seed generally known as Sapodilla. It has exceptional fuel properties like fossil diesel. By the transesterification process, Manilkara Zapota Methyl Ester (MZME) was taken out from crude manilkara zapota seed oil. Numerous test samples were equipped in the combination ratios ranging from 10% to 30% and the mixtures were selected as ZB10D90 (10% MZME + 90% Pure Diesel), ZB20D80 (20% MZME + 80% Pure Diesel) and ZB30D70 (30% MZME + 70% Pure Diesel). An experimental examination was performed on a single cylinder four stroke direct injection diesel engine to find out the emission, combustion properties, and performance at continuous speed and numerous load circumstances. The experimental outcomes were exposed that, at complete load condition, the performance aspects like BSFC and BTE were improved by 7.69% and 7.44% respectively, and the parameters of emission like CO was reduced greatly by 64% whereas NO x , HC and smoke opacity were concurrently increased by 12.36%, 6.67%, and 3.88% respectively, but no big variance was found in the emission of CO 2 when compared to diesel fuel. Heat release rate was decreased by 5.04% and cylinder peak pressure was improved slightly.
