“…This section describes the data synthesis from previous studies related to engine performance and emissions in diesel engines using B100. The key performance characteristics of diesel engines (Balasubramanian et al, 2021) including Brake Thermal Efficiency (BTE), Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC), Cylinder Pressure (CPs), Heat Release Rate (HRR), NOx, and Smoke were examined in 12 reviewed articles. The results of the synthesis data review are described in Table 2 and Table 3, respectively. Unfortunately, only 12 of the 127 selected articles are eligible to be reviewed in detail and none of them discusses all the key performance of diesel engines which include Brake Thermal Efficiency (BTE), Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC), Cylinder Pressure (CPs), Heat Release Rate (HRR), NOx, and smoke, all article discusses partially.…”

“…However, at high loads, the noise level of B100 is higher than that of a blend of biodiesel and pure diesel oil. It is caused by the high oxygen content in B100 which causes the fire to extinguish, causing incomplete combustion and pressure variations in the cylinder (Balasubramanian et al, 2021).…”

Currently, many countries are promoting B100 as the main fuel for diesel engines towards the transition to 100% renewable energy applications. However, due to its properties, B100 has both advantages and disadvantages to replace diesel oil. Therefore, a bibliometric analysis was carried out to evaluate the performance and emissions of a diesel engine with the B100 being tested on a multi-cylinder diesel engine for cars. Unfortunately, only 12 of the 127 selected articles are eligible to be reviewed in detail and none of them discusses all the key performance of diesel engines which include Brake Thermal Efficiency (BTE), Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC), Cylinder Pressure (CPs), Heat Release Rate (HRR), NOx, and smoke. Through data synthesis, we found that the use of B100 provides advantages in engine noise, thermal efficiency, specific fuel consumption, and emissions under certain engine loads. On the other hand, it also has the potential to result in poorer performance, if there is no modification to engine components and the addition of additives. As a recommendation, the results of this analysis provide a guide for further research to examine the use of B100 with all diesel engine performance variables. Research paths can be developed with the wider potential to provide new arguments on various diesel engine technologies, engine capacities, B100 raw materials, and test environments.

“…The functional groups of compounds in the samples of Biodiesel B100, diesel D100, and lemon essential oil are known after the FTIR or Fourier Transform Infrared test as shown in Figure 6. FTIR is an analytical method that can be used to determine the functional groups of a compound by recording the residue spectrum with energy absorption by organic molecules in the infrared [26,27]. Biodiesel B100 which has been transesterified was analyzed using the FTIR instrument to prove that a methyl ester functional group will be formed [28].…”

This study is motivated by the depletion of fossil fuels in nature, which is inversely proportional to the higher level of fuel oil consumption, so the need for alternative fuels, namely biodiesel. Biodiesel can be made using waste cooking oil because of its abundant quantity, low price, and not being reused. One of the efforts to achieve energy conservation and improve fuel quality is using bioadditives. A lemon essential oil can be used as a bio-additive because it is easily soluble in fuel and its oxygen-rich content can reduce the rate of fuel consumption. The process in this study is to produce biodiesel with waste cooking oil (WCO) using a transesterification process. Biodiesel samples containing the bioadditive lemon essential oil on B20 biodiesel with varying volume fraction (0%; 0.1%; 0.15%; 0.2%). In general, this research can be done in three steps. The first step is the characterization of the compound composition (GCMS) and functional group (FTIR) of diesel fuel, biodiesel, and lemon essential oil bioadditive. The second step is the characterization of the physicochemical properties (density, viscosity, flash point, calorific value) of B20 biodiesel with various concentrations of lemon essential oil bioadditive, then compared with SNI 7182:2015. The third step is determining the rate of fuel consumption in diesel engines. The results show that Biodiesel B20 with a volume fraction of 2% lemon essential oil bioadditive has a high ability to reduce the rate of fuel consumption.

Experimental investigations on the performance and emissions characteristics of dual biodiesel blends on a varying compression ratio diesel engine

The present work discusses the performance and emissions characterization of dual biodiesel sample blends on a varying compression ratio diesel engine. The dual biodiesel blends were obtained by blending two biodiesels (Mahua and Jatropha) in equal proportions volume (1:1, v/v) with mineral diesel. The sample blends were obtained on a ‘percentage by volume’ basis and named B10, B20, B30, and B40 (B10 was a blend of 5% each biodiesel with 90% mineral diesel and similarly for all other sample blends). All the experiments were performed at a constant engine speed of 1500 rpm, 50% loading conditions (2.6 kW), and varying compression ratios of 13.5:1, 14.5:1, 15.5:1, and 16.5:1. The results revealed that the sample blends had slightly higher brake power and mechanical efficiency with sample blends B10 to B40 had (0.15–1.58%) higher brake power and (1.07–12.42%) higher mechanical efficiency as compared to mineral diesel at a compression ratio of 16.5:1. The In-cylinder peak pressure and exhaust gas temperature were observed to be lower than mineral diesel for the sample blends B10 to B40 by 0.15–0.36 bar and 11.1–69.8 ℃, respectively. Also, the emissions of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons were lower by 33–62%, respectively, for the sample with the highest blend percentage. However, the carbon dioxide emissions were found to be higher by 42.85% than mineral diesel. From the overall performance and characterization, it is concluded that B20 had optimum properties and blend percentage to be a better substitute fuel for mineral diesel among all the tested samples.
