Abstract-Biodiesel has been a promising clean alternative fuel to fossil fuels, which cuts the emissions that are released by fossil fuels, and perhaps reduces the energy crisis induced by the exhaustion of oil resources in the near future. In this study, the effect of antioxidant additive on engine performance and emission characteristics of an engine fueled with palm biodiesel was investigated and compared with conventional diesel fuel. For this study, four fuel samples including pure diesel, diesel-biodiesel (B20), diesel-biodiesel-additive (B20+additive) and pure biodiesel (B100) were used in a multi cylinder, four stroke, water cooled, direct injection diesel engine. Engine tests were performed at various engine speed of 1000 rpm to 4000 rpm with 50% throttle opening. Engine performance and emission concentrations are investigated by determining the break specific fuel consumption (BSFC), brake thermal efficiency, CO, HC, NO x and smoke opacity using gas analyzers. The results showed that the use of baynox plus solution as additive with palm methylester gave average 3.10% higher brake power as well as 23.2% and 2.40% lower NO x and brake specific fuel consumption than the biodiesel blend without additives.Index Terms-IC engine, palm methyl ester, additives, NO x . I. INTRODUCTIONThe need for energy remains to increase worldwide, creating a need to branch out from conventional fossil fuels [1], [2]. The global energy requirement is anticipated to increase about 30% in the decades between 2010 and 2030 [3], [4]. Increased environmental concern, tougher vehicle emission norms, increasing prices and uncertainties concerning petroleum availability necessities the search of a viable alternative fuel, which is more environmental friendly [5]- [7]. In recent years, there has been an increased emphasis on extending the role of alternative fuels. Aside from reducing dependency on fossil fuels, a lot of the effort to increase the utilization of alternative fuels has been prompted by the importance of reducing greenhouse gases emissions, such as carbon dioxide, in reaction to the increasing menace of global warming [8]-[10]. Biodiesel is a promising alternative fuel, which is renewable, biodegradable, non-toxic and environmental friendly [4], [11], [12]. It is an ester based oxygenated fuels consisting of a long chain fatty acid and can be derived from vegetable oils (both edible and non-edible), waste cooking, and animal fats oil etc. [13]. Biodiesel in Manuscript received June 10, 2015; revised December 10, 2015 Lin and Rong [20] investigated the effect of waste cooking oil biodiesel, fish oil biodiesel and 2D diesel on a 4-cylinder direct injection engine. They observed higher NO x and PM emissions and lower CO emission while using fish oil biodiesel than using waste cooking oil biodiesel. However, both biodiesels showed lower PM, CO emission and higher NO x emissions compared to diesel fuel. The fish oil biodiesel gave lower BSFC than to the waste cooking oil biodiesel.

“…Ancak, bitkisel yağların dizel yakıtına yakın setan sayısı ve ısıl değer gibi avantajlarının yanında yüksek viskozite, düşük uçuculuk ve yüksek doymamış hidrokarbon oranı gibi dezavantajları bulunmaktadır [7]. Bu olumsuz özellikleri nedeniyle bitkisel yağlar motorlarda uzun süreli kullanımlarda reçine (gum) oluşumu, enjektörlerin tıkanması ve yağlama yağının bozulması gibi önemli problemlere neden olabilmektedir [8,9]. Ortaya çıkan bu problemler bitkisel yağlara farklı ısıl ve kimyasal işlemler uygulanarak ortadan kaldırılmaya çalışılmaktadır.…”

“…Furthermore, it does not contribute to a net rise in the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and minimizes the intensity of the greenhouse effect [3,4]. Biodiesel is also better than diesel in terms of aromatic content and biodegradability [5,6]. Palm biodiesel is efficient, clean and it is a natural energy alternative to petroleum fuel.…”

Abstract:In this study, the fuel properties and engine performance of blended palm biodiesel-diesel using diethyl ether as additive have been investigated. The properties of B30 blended palm biodiesel-diesel fuel were measured and analyzed statistically with the addition of 2%, 4%, 6% and 8% (by volume) diethyl ether additive. The engine tests were conducted at increasing engine speeds from 1500 rpm to 3500 rpm and under constant load. Optimization of independent variables was performed using the desirability approach of the response surface methodology (RSM) with the goal of minimizing emissions and maximizing performance parameters. The experiments were designed using a statistical tool known as design of experiments (DoE) based on RSM.
