Abstract
We experimentally evaluate a performance and exhaust emissions of a single cylinder, four stroke direct injection type diesel engine operating on gas oil, waste and new soybean oil, waste animal fet from restaurant grease and rice oil methyl ester (BDF).. The combustion characteristics and emissions such as NOx, CO, THC, O_2, CO_2, smoke opacity and particle size distribution of exhaust particulate are compared with data for the case of JIS #2 gas oil. Fuel consumption and indicator diagram in cylinder are measured. Based upon evaluation of engine performance and emissions, biomass based fuels especially animal fat appear to be renewable, ecologically, environmentally acceptable fuels for diesel engines at all load range. Also discussed are the usability of the waste food oil and methyl ester BDF as alternative fuel, as well as availability for a treatment processes of the waste food oil.
