“…The standard viscosity value of biodiesel is 2.3 to 6 mm 2 /s [13]. If the viscosity is too high, there is a significant friction loss in the pipe, decreased pump performance, filter plugged due to the possibility of much dirt being deposited, and it is not easy to atomize the fuel [14] [15]. Conversely, if the viscosity is too low, it results in power loss [16].…”

This study aims to obtain the spray and flame characteristics of biodiesel blend fuel used in the ignition system of a Circulating Fluidized Bed (CFB) coal-fired steam power plant. Characterization of the chemical composition, physics of fuel, handling of biodiesel in handling system to the burner, and the characterization of combustion in the burner simulator are studied. The primary data in this study is the data from the combustion trial results in the burner simulator, while the secondary data is in the form of operation data and power plant design data. Biodiesel has properties close to diesel oil and allows use in blending to a specific ratio. The result shows that the spraying angle of biodiesel and blends are narrower than the B0 condition, and the distance of flame become shorter along with the increase in biodiesel content. These phenomena can cause the burner difficult to ignite, which can be overcome by adjusting the igniter position into the fuel spray distribution zone. Because biodiesel is easily oxidized, it is necessary to maintain the fuel lines kept clean, primarily when the system is not operating for a long time. Biodiesel has a higher viscosity and density than petroleum diesel which can cause problems with the injection start-up burner. The use of biodiesel fuel requires more stringent handling, adding filters, isolating fuel oil tanks from rainwater and humid air, and replacing materials that are not compatible with biodiesel in pipe fittings and gasket.

“…Each parameter affects the characteristics differently, so it is important to investigate the best parameter for biodiesel with different natural feedstocks [31]. The effect of injection parameter on thermal performance and emission characteristics of an oil burner fueled with B20 palm oil has been studied by Abu-Hamdeh et al [32]. An increase in injection pressure gives several advantages as it has been proven to be able to enhance the mixing rate and complete combustion and significantly reduce CO and soot particle emissions.…”

Biodiesel has caught the attention of many researchers because it has great potential to be a sustainable fossil fuel substitute. Biodiesel has a non-toxic and renewable nature and has been proven to emit less environmentally harmful emissions such as hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon monoxide (CO) as smoke particles during combustion. Problems related to global warming caused by greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions could also be solved by utilizing biodiesel as a daily energy source. However, the expensive cost of biodiesel production, mainly because of the cost of natural feedstock, hinders the potential of biodiesel commercialization. The selection of natural sources of biodiesel should be made with observations from economic, agricultural, and technical perspectives to obtain one feasible biodiesel with superior characteristics. This review paper presents a detailed overview of various natural sources, their physicochemical properties, the performance, emission, and combustion characteristics of biodiesel when used in a diesel engine. The recent progress in studies about natural feedstocks and manufacturing methods used in biodiesel production were evaluated in detail. Finally, the findings of the present work reveal that transesterification is currently the most superior and commonly used biodiesel production method compared to other methods available.

Biodiesel has caught the attention of many researchers because it has great potential to be sustainable fossil fuel substitute. Biodiesel has non-toxic and renewable nature and has been proven to emit less amount of environmentally harmful emissions such as hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon monoxide (CO), as well as smoke particles during combustion. Problems related to global warming caused by greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions could also be solved by utilizing biodiesel as a daily energy source. However, the expensive cost of biodiesel production, mainly because of the cost of natural feedstock, holds the potential of biodiesel commercialization. The selection of natural sources of biodiesel should be made with observations from economic, agricultural, and technical perspectives to obtain one feasible biodiesel with superior characteristics.
