Combustion and Emission Characteristics of Biodiesel from Vegetable Oils in the Diesel Engine: A Review

Abstract

Background: Vegetable oil of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) that is obtained by triglycerides of transesterification in the attendance of methanol, recently, has been highly regarded by scholars for using in diesel engines. These oils can be used as biodiesels in diesel engines and have various benefits (these fuel are renewable, biodegradable, and nontoxic). Objective: There are many methods for synthesizing magnetic nanoparticles, and the properties of these nanoparticles are largely dependent on their synthesis method. Magnetite has many applications in various fields, one of the most important of which is the application of electrochemical sensors. These nanoparticles attached to the surface of different electrodes and used for the sensitive and selective electrochemical determination of trace amounts of several combinations. In this review paper, recent suggested synthesis methods of Fe3O4 and its derivatives and their electrochemical application are discussed.
