Abstract:

Bio-diesel is widely accepted as comparable fuel to diesel in compression ignition engine. It offers advantages like higher cetane number, reduced emissions of particulates. Moreover, transportation and agriculture sector depends on diesel fuel therefore, it is essential that alternatives to diesel fuels must be developed. In the view of these, vegetable oils like palm oil, cotton seed oil, Neem oil, pongamia oil are considered as alternative fuels to diesel which are promising alternatives. Natural gas is a mixture of hydrocarbons-mainly methane and is produced either from gas wells or in con

Abstract:

Abstract With the increasing global demand and rising fossil fuel prices, the oil industry is turning to alternative fuels from renewable sources like biodiesel or vegetable oils. To compensate for the scarcity of fossil fuels, fuel from vegetable oils is one of the alternatives to meet energy needs. Biodiesel is considered a suitable and better choice due to its environmentally friendly features, reduced carbon dioxide emissions, and functional properties similar to fossil fuels. The diesel blend is a renewable fuel derived from a mixture of hydrocarbons (diesel) and fatty acid methyl esters

Abstract:

Petroleum-based fuels are now widely known as environmentally unfriendly because of non-renewable supplies and its contribution to environmental pollution. The challenge, therefore is to ensure appropriate energy supplies at minimum cost. There is an increasing energy demand in the world and nowadays it can be fulfilled only on the basis of fossil fuels. Therefore, it is necessary to evolve a renewable energy source with lower environmental impact. One alternative solution can be oils of plant origin, like vegetable oils and non-edible oils.

Abstract:

Biodiesel is an alternative source of fuel for various automotive applications. Because of the increasing demand for energy and the scarcity of fossil fuels, researchers have turned their attention to biodiesel production from various sources in recent years. The production of biofuels from organic materials and waste components allows for the use of these waste resources in transporting resources and people over long distances. As a result, developing sustainable measures for this aspect of life is critical, as knowledge of appropriate fuel sources, corresponding emissions, and health impacts

Abstract:

Biofuel is an alternative and environment friendly source of energy, originated by the use of fossil fuels and have led to a notable growing demand from the last few decades. As biodiesel are usually acquired from renewable sources like vegetable and animal oils, for example coconut oil is extracted from the coconut and then characterized for further usage. The aim of this study is to investigate the production of biodiesel from neem oil and to characterize the parameters that affect biodiesel performance.

For several years, the use of oil to move vehicles, transport people, generate energy and other activities necessary for social life, has made the world very dependent on this input. Among the alternative fuels studied, we have the biodiesel, a fuel obtained through the transesterification process of vegetable oils or animal fats, which has become a potential substitute for petroleum diesel. Among the advantages of using this fuel, the following stand out: being renewable, reducing the country’s dependence on oil, and having lower rates of greenhouse gas emissions than petro diesel.

Abstract:

The need for vegetable oils as alternative energy reserves increases with the depletion of fossil energy sources. Vegetable oil is the strongest candidate to replace the fossil energy. However, the use of vegetable oil directly as fuel is limited by high viscosity. Viscosity like this results in non-ideal atomization, challenging to evaporate, and cannot burn completely. Among the methods that have been studied by previous researchers and which have proven to be effective, cheaper, and can reduce the viscosity of vegetable oils better is the mixing method.

Approximately 25% of global carbon emissions come from food production. Renewable fuels are crucial for curbing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from vehicles, non-road machines, and agricultural machinery. Tractors, key to modern farming, are central to these efforts. As agriculture strives for sustainability, alternative fuels like methanol and hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) are arousing interest because they are renewable and offer potential for blending for use in diesel engines. Methanol and HVO have limited solubility in direct mixing, so the addition of a co-solvent is essential. This s
