In this work, biodiesel obtained from the transesterfication of Jatropha seeds and Fish wastes is used as an alternative fuel to diesel in stationary single cylinder diesel engines. The biodiesel obtained has good ignition ability due to its relatively high cetane number compared to that of conventional diesel fuel. The performance, combustion and emission tests using Jatropha Oil Methyl Ester (JOME), Fish Oil Methyl Ester (FOME) and their blends (20% JOME and 20% FOME) with diesel were carried out at constant speed and variable loads condition. The results showed that both blends could be used as fuels for diesel engine without any major modification on the engine. Carbon monoxide (CO), UBHC and smoke emissions were observed to be lesser at all loads for both the blends compared to diesel fuel, while NOx emission was slightly higher. JOME blend was found to be better than FOME blend.

In this study mustard oil produced from biodiesel production process are optimized. Parameters such as methanol / oil ratio, the catalyst concentration, reaction time and temperature have been investigated in the optimization process. Mustard oil-diesel fuel consisting of blends at the different proportions has been examined effects on engine performance and exhaust emissions. While proportion of biodiesel rising, power and torque of the internal combustion engine are reduced and specific fuel consumption (SFC) is increased. In addition, biodiesel, diesel fuels and blends of biodiesel-diesel fuels were investigated and their compared to NO x and CO emissions. It is found that biodiesel of mustard oil emissions more less than that of diesel fuel.

“…Several studies have been conducted to find efficient methods for producing biodiesel from different feedstocks. The transesterification process was used for the conversion of various sources of oils to methyl esters, such as waste oils [1][2][3], vegetable oils [4][5][6][7], animal fats [8][9][10], and algae or microalgae [11][12][13]. It was demonstrated that selecting a proper feedstock plays an important role * Sara Tayari, Sara.tayari@gmail.com | 1 Faculty of Environment and Energy, Islamic Azad University Science and Research Branch, Tehran, Iran.…”

This paper aims to consider the potential of Eruca sativa (ES) crops, which is a plant with a short production cycle and drought tolerance, for biodiesel feedstock source and to compare exhaust emissions and engine performance of using its biodiesel blends with pure diesel. Thus, ES methyl ester was produced through a transesterification reaction by using KOH as a catalyst. The fatty acid composition of ES biodiesel was determined by FTIR and GC-MS analysis and its properties were compared with ASTM biodiesel standard and regular diesel. The GC-MS analysis showed that oleic and palmitic acids were the main compounds in ES methyl ester. Then, biodiesel blends were injected into a single-cylinder 4-stroke diesel engine at various speeds. Experimental tests revealed that using ES methyl ester led to reductions in HC and CO emissions substantially and NOx emissions moderately, whereas there was a minor rise in CO 2 emissions. Moreover, a slight decrease in engine power and an increase in specific fuel consumption (5.3%) occurred, which are acceptable due to the reduction of exhaust emissions. Based on the results, ES biodiesel has the capability to apply in CI engines and to diminish emissions.
