“…The keyword cluster analysis revealed 10 main research topics, including biodiesel production from essential oils, diesel, fuel, and engine performance, and green chemistry. The study comes to the conclusion that in the drive for a sustainable and clean environment, subjects including various biodiesel raw material sources, biodiesel conversion technology, and the performance and emission characteristics of second-generation biodiesel are growing in popularity [26]. The findings demonstrated that adding clove oil at various volume percentages reduced fuel use, with 0.5% of clove oil causing the greatest decrease.…”

The study aimed to assess carbon deposition tendencies in mustard biodiesel with varying oxidation levels by examining residual carbon and existent gum content. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and infrared spectrometry were used to analyze the chemical components of residual carbon and existent gum in mustard biodiesel and an antioxidant before and after oxidation. The research investigated carbon deposition on the exhaust valve of a compression ignition engine using mustard biodiesel blended with clove oil as an antioxidant. The engine ran for 100 hours on each fuel sample: diesel (D100), biodiesel blended fuel (B30), and clove oil (3000ppm). After completing 100 hours on each sample, engine exhaust was analyzed for carbon deposition using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive Microscopy (EDX).The findings revealed increased carbon deposition when using biodiesel blended fuel compared to diesel fuel. However, the addition of an antioxidant to the biodiesel blend resulted in reduced carbon deposition. This suggests that the use of antioxidants effectively mitigated carbon buildup in the engine's exhaust when using biodiesel blends. The aim of this study is to enhance engine performance, increase engine life, and reduce pollution in the environment.

“…Frying oils, vegetable oils, animal fats, and oil created by microorganisms can all be used to make biodiesel [3,4]. However, there are a number of benefits to using secondgeneration biodiesel made from essential oil plants, such as its ability to facilitate high biofuel production and to lower greenhouse gas emissions [5]. The first stage in the manufacturing of biodiesel, however, is the selection of the feedstock, which requires the consideration of a number of attributes, including the composition, purity of the fuel, yield, and cost.…”

The biodiesel industry is a promising field globally, and is expanding significantly and quickly. To create a biodiesel business that is both sustainable and commercially feasible, a number of studies have been conducted on the use of non-edible oils to produce biodiesel. Thus, this study highlights biodiesel synthesis from non-edible plant oils such as pongamia and jatropha using a glycerol separation technique with an AC high voltage method through the transesterification reaction. In this context, non-edible plant oil has emerged as an alternative with a high potential for making the biodiesel process sustainable. Moreover, the study introduces how the created biodiesel fuel behaves when burned in a diesel engine. The results showed that the optimum conditions for creating biodiesel were a temperature of 60 °C, a potassium hydroxide catalyst percentage by weight of oils of 1%, and a stirring time of 60 min at a 5:1 (v/v) ratio of methanol to oil. A high-voltage procedure was used to separate glycerol and biodiesel using two electrodes of copper with different distances between them and different high voltages. The results showed that, for a batch of 15 L, the minimum separating time was 10 min when the distance between the copper electrodes was 2.5 cm, and the high voltage was 15 kV. The density, kinematic viscosity, and flash point of jatropha oil were reduced from 0.920 to 0.881 g/cm3 at 15 °C, from 37.1 to 4.38 cSt at 40 °C, and from 211 to 162 °C, respectively, for the production of biodiesel. Additionally, the density, kinematic viscosity, and flash point of pongamia oil were reduced from 0.924 to 0.888 g/cm3 at 15 °C, from 27.8 to 5.23 cSt at 40 °C, and from 222 to 158 °C, respectively, for the production of biodiesel. The calorific value of jatropha oil was increased from 38.08 to 39.65 MJ/kg for the production of biodiesel, while that of pongamia oil was increased from 36.61 to 36.94 MJ/kg. The cetane number increased from 21 for oil to 50 for biodiesel and from 32 for oil to 52 for jatropha and pongamia biodiesel, respectively. In order to run an air-cooled, single-cylinder, four-stroke diesel engine at full load, the produced biodiesel fuel was blended with diesel fuel at different percentages—10, 20, and 30%—for jatropha and pongamia methyl esters. The produced engine power values were 3.91, 3.69, and 3.29 kW for B10, B20, and B30, respectively, compared with the engine power value of jatropha methyl ester, which was 4.12 kW for diesel fuel (B00); meanwhile, the values were 3.70, 3.36, and 3.07 kW for B10, B20 and B30, respectively, for pongamia methyl ester. The findings suggest that the biodiesel derived from non-edible oils, such as pongamia and jatropha, could be a good alternative to diesel fuel.
