3performance Study of Biodiesel

This document summarizes a performance study of biodiesel conducted by engineering students. The study aimed to comprehensively review engine performance and emissions when using biodiesel compared to diesel. Tests were conducted to analyze and compare the engine performance of diesel, biodiesel, and blends of the two. Exhaust gas analysis was also performed to determine the levels of carbon, nitrogen, and other pollutants from each fuel. The results were intended to identify the most efficient fuel and amount of pollutants produced.

ABSTRACT

In view of the fast depletion of fossil fuel, the search for alternative fuels has become
inevitable, looking at huge demand of diesel for transportation sector, captive power
generation and agricultural sector, the biodiesel is being viewed a substitute of diesel.
Biodiesel, derived from the transesterification of vegetable oils or animal fats, is composed of
saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acid alkyl esters. In spite of having some
application problems, recently it is being considered as one of the most promising alternative
fuels in internal combustion engine. The aim of our project is to do a comprehensive review
of engine performance and emissions using biodiesel and to compare that with the diesel.
In this project we discuss the engine performance of diesel,biodiesel and the different
compositions of biodiesel.And we also discuss and test the exhaust gas analysis conducted
with these fuels.After doing the performance test conducted with the above fuels, we
determine the most efficient fuel and the end of the exhaust gas test,we determine the amount
of carbon, nitrogen and other pollutants that are contained in the fuel.
