“…Each tree yields about 20–40 kg of seed per year (Borugadda and Goud, 2012). Madhuca indica seed contains 35% oil and 16% protein (Panigrahi et al., 2014). Fresh Madhuca indica oil from properly stored seeds is yellow, while commercial oils are generally greenish yellow with an offensive odor and disagreeable taste (Puhan et al., 2005).…”

Biodiesel is an alternative to petroleum-based fuels derived from a variety of feedstocks, including vegetable oils, animal fats, and waste cooking oil. At present, biodiesel is mainly produced from conventionally grown edible oils such as soybean, rapeseed, sunflower, and palm. The cost of biodiesel is the main obstacle to commercialization of the product. Biodiesel produced from edible oils is currently not economically feasible. On the other hand, extensive use of edible oils for biodiesel production may lead to food crisis. These problems can be solved by using lowcost feedstocks such as non-edible oils and waste cooking oils for biodiesel production. This paper reviews numerous options of non-edible oils as the substantial feedstocks, biodiesel processing, and effect of different parameters on production of biodiesel.

“…where y i is molar ratio of the ith component in the exhaust gas, y e i is molar ratio of the ith component in the reference environment, R is the universal gas constant (8.314 kJ/kmol-K). If a given component does not exist in the environment, then the chemical exergy of the hydrocarbon in Gibbs free energy ( g) form is expressed as equation (19) as per Kopac and Kokturk. 33…”

“…17 The results show that by using the cottonseed and palm oils pure or blended with diesel for different engine loads the combination of exergy and gas emissions analyses is a very effective tool for evaluating the optimal loads that can be supplied by CI engines. 18 Panigrahi et al 19 concluded that by using mahua oil methyl ester and diesel up to 20%, the performance, emission energy and exergy part is very close with that of diesel. The results of a seven Brake Horse Power water cooled diesel engine fuelled with petro-diesel, and palm biodiesel showed a similar type energetic performance with petro-diesel.…”

This study extant, energy and exergy analysis of a CI engine running on PB20 (20% polanga biodiesel by volume blended with 80% diesel by volume) mixture of 20% polanga oil methyl ester (POME) with 80% diesel by volume) and diesel. The results of the study show that the heat loss percentage is maximum, and the exhaust loss percentage is minimum for the tested fuels in energy distribution. The percentage of exergy destruction is maximum, and exergy due to heat loss percentage is minimum for the tested fuels during exergy breakdown. PB20 provides 1.4% less energy to the engine than diesel fuel to give the same power. The rate of heat transfer for PB20 is more than that of diesel. Energy loss due to exhaust gas for PB20 is 13% less than that of diesel fuel. The exergy input is about 6–7% higher than the fuel energy input. Exergy destruction of diesel is more than that of PB20 by 3.18%. Exergy loss due to heat loss of PB20 is higher than that of diesel by 1.5%. Overall, the test results indicate that better combustion and efficiencies with less irreversibility are found with biodiesel. Uncertainty analysis and sensitivity analysis are carried out by considering the temperature parameter. The uncertainty lies between the true values. Thus, PB20 can be a partial replacement for diesel as a fuel.

“…In one research it was found that neem, karanja, rubber, jatropha, mahua are major candidates as they can be grown in diverse socio-economic and environmental conditions and also they are multipurpose plants which founds its applications in medicines, dyes, ornamental, feeds, soil enrichments, afforestation etc [4]. Nabnith panighari et al [5] have analysed the single cylinder diesel engine running with mahua biodiesel blends and they found that B20 fuel has higher thermal efficiency and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) compared to other blends and NOx emission is higher for biodiesel compared to diesel. S Sivalakshmi et al [6] have checked the performance of 4 stroke single cylinder diesel engine fuelled with Neem oil biodiesel and they found that lower blend ratio gives better performance compared to diesel fuel and combustion process is improved with biodiesel.…”

Alternative fuels for internal combustion engine are area of research for past few decades because of limited quantity of fossil fuel used today. Biodiesel fuels are one of the candidates of the alternative fuel for compression ignition engine due to many advantages. In this research performance of single cylinder, 4-stroke, water cooled, variable compression ratio diesel engine running using jatropha biodiesel blends (B10 to B50 with increment of 10) is discussed. Nonedible biodiesel blend is chosen to avoid food security related problem in case of edible oil based biodiesel. Engine was run at default set compression ratio of 17.5 and injection pressure of 180 bar. Performance was measured at three different loading condition for each blends used in investigation. It was found that at lower blends performance is similar to that of diesel fuel. Highest thermal efficiency was found for B20 v/v blend which was 26.43% while other blend B30 shown similar thermal efficiency compare to diesel but was lower than B20. Emission of engine running with biodiesel was almost similar to that of diesel and there was no significant difference observed.
