“…Another exciting report by Singh et al [216] used argemone biodiesel and diesel blends in multi-cylinder diesel engines and observed that blending up to 20% biodiesel in diesel decreased EGT. They explained that with the addition of 20% biodiesel, the cylinder pressure peak and heat release rate peak were similar to diesel, thus leading to complete combustion and decreased EGT.…”

Due to the increasing air pollution from diesel engines and the shortage of conventional fossil fuels, many experimental and numerical types of research have been carried out and published in the literature over the past few decades to find a new, sustainable, and alternative fuels. Biodiesel is an appropriate alternate solution for diesel engines because it is renewable, non-toxic, and eco-friendly. According to the European Academies Science Advisory Council, biodiesel evolution is broadly classified into four generations. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the production, properties, combustion, performance, and emission characteristics of diesel engines using different generations of biodiesel as an alternative fuel to replace fossil-based diesel and summarizes the primary feedstocks and properties of different generations of biodiesel compared with diesel. The general impression is that the use of different generations of biodiesel decreased 30% CO, 50% HC, and 70% smoke emissions compared with diesel. Engine performance is slightly decreased by an average of 3.13%, 89.56%, and 11.98% for higher density, viscosity, and cetane, respectively, while having a 7.96% lower heating value compared with diesel. A certain ratio of biodiesel as fuel instead of fossil diesel combined with advanced after-treatment technology is the main trend of future diesel engine development.

“…The greatest rise in NOx emissions was recorded in POME20, which was 92.6%. Using Argemone biodiesel-diesel mixes, Singh and Sandhu [83] studied the NOx emissions of a four-cylinder turbocharged common rail DI engine. The engine operates in three load conditions: a low load (15%), partial load (45%), and heavy load (75%), as well as at a fixed rotational speed of 2000 rpm.…”

Two main aspects of the transportation industry are pollution to the environment and depletion of fossil fuels. In the transportation industry, the pollution to the environment can be reduced with the use of cleaner fuel, such as gas-to-liquid fuel, to reduce the exhaust emissions from engines. However, the depletion of fossil fuels is still significant. Biodiesel is a non-toxic, renewable, and biodegradable fuel that is considered an alternative resource to conventional diesel fuel. Even though biodiesel shows advantages as a renewable source, there are still minor drawbacks while operating in diesel engines. Modern vehicle engines are designed to be powered by conventional diesel fuel or gasoline fuel. In this review, the performance, emissions, combustion, and endurance characteristics of different types of diesel engines with various conditions are assessed with biodiesel and blended fuel as well as the effect of biodiesel on the diesel engines. The results show that biodiesel and blended fuel had fewer emissions of CO, HC, and PM but higher NOx emissions than the diesel-fuelled engine. In the endurance test, biodiesel and blended fuel showed less wear and carbon deposits. A high concentration of wear debris was found inside the lubricating oil while the engine operated with biodiesel and blends. The performance, emissions, and combustion characteristics of biodiesel and its blends showed that it can be used in a diesel engine. However, further research on long-term endurance tests is required to obtain a better understanding of endurance characteristics about engine wear of the diesel engine using biodiesel and its blends.

“…They found that the behaviour of jatropha and Argemone biodiesel in diesel engines is nearly identical. Singh and Sandhu 30 Compared the performance, emission, and combustion characteristics of a 1.9L common rail direct injection (CRDI) engine powered with diesel and various Argemone biodiesel-diesel blends at low load, part load, and high load. Esterification and Transesterifications were used to make biodiesel from crude Argemone oil due to high FFA content.…”

The Taguchi technique has been used in this study to optimise the production parameters of biodiesel made from Argemone mexicana seed oil for maximum yield. This biodiesel has been produced through the transesterification process of non-edible vegetable oil of Argemone mexicana seeds. The molar ratio (A), Catalyst concentration (B), and reaction time or heating time (C) were chosen as the three factors that have a substantial impact on biodiesel production. All three factors are considered at three levels for experimental runs according to the L9 orthogonal array. The Biodiesel yield percentage was then measured for every experimental run. The signal to noise ratio has been calculated using the statistical software Minitab, based on the larger is better criterion. After analysing the Taguchi response table, the optimum level of all the parameters has been found out. The ANOVA technique was also applied to get the most significant factors that affect the biodiesel yield by calculating the percentage contribution of each factor. According to our results, the best combination of all the factors for Biodiesel yield is A3B3C1. The utmost and least influencing factors for Biodiesel production were heating time and molar ratio, with their contribution factors of 57.31% and 10.96%, respectively. Thus, the order of credence of all the three factors was CBA.
