“…In addition, it is worth highlighting that some physico-chemical properties of the tyre pyrolysis liquids are fairly comparable to those found in commercial automotive diesel fuels, as shown in Table 1. These facts, together with their miscibility with diesel fuel [11] have encouraged their use as a replacement for conventional liquid fuels in compression ignition engines as showed in [12][13][14].…”

Co-pyrolysis of forestry wastes and waste tyres is carried out using different facilities: a fixed bed reactor and a continuous auger reactor. Remarkably, only one phase is found in the liquid fraction, which is not achieved by mixture of the pure liquids. In addition, positive effects between waste tyre and biomass are evidenced, being more notable even synergetic in the auger reactor. It is found that whilst acidity, density and oxygen content decrease, pH and calorific value increase with respect to the merely biomass pyrolysis liquid, leading to upgraded bio-oil. Upgrading process is linked to the presence of radical interactions between waste tyres and biomass pyrolysis products. In addition, it is observed that the addition of waste tyres to the feedstock blend is significantly decreasing the amount of aldehydes and phenolic compounds, which is beneficial for improving the stability of the new bio-oils.

“…When the engine was fuelled with oxygenated blends, a marginal reduction in BP was observed as compared to diesel, which may be attributed to the lower heating value and cetane index of butanol. Blends B1, B2, B3, and B4 showed a reduction of 1.7%, 2%, 3.4%, and 4.38%, [50] respectively; as for low cetane fuels with long delay, ignition may occur sufficiently late during the expansion process and due to this the burning process is quenched, resulting in incomplete combustion, resulting in reduced power and poor fuel conversion efficiency.…”

In order to meet growing global energy requirement and environmental norms, exhaustive research is being carried out to switch the energy demand to alternative energy sources. The main objective of the present study is to produce biodiesel from non-edible vegetable oil and compare the performance and emission parameters with diesel fuel. The use of vegetable oil has encountered problems due to its high viscosity, low volatilities, and high density. To avoid these problems the biodiesel is a substitute in CI engines. In this paper, biodiesel is produced using Jatropha methyl/ethyl ester and further blending it with diesel and butanol. The transesterification reaction is chosen for this process, with sodium methoxide as the catalyst. Comparison studies on the yield of esters using methanol and ethanol, as well as the impacts on the reaction rates, are discussed. The effects of reaction time and molar ratio on the reaction conversion are also examined. Determination of reaction yield is based on the conversion of triglycerides into alkyl esters as the main product. The performance parameters are evaluated such as BTE and Brake Specific Energy Consumption (BSEC) along with emissions of CO, HC, NO x and smoke opacity for the test fuels. Combustion analysis was done using cylinder pressure and heat release rate with respect to crank angle.

“…NO x emissions of PO10D were higher (Fig. 2g) because of the peak pressure inside the cylinder is higher which increases cylinder temperature (Dogan et al, 2012). NO x emission slightly increases when using biodiesel blended fuels.…”
