Abstract
Exhausting vitality assets at a disturbing rate urges analysts to scan for different materials that can be utilized as biofuels. Sustainable properties and eco-accommodating nature of biodiesel has made it most well-known among different other options to petroleum products. Transesterficiation process is observed to be most reasonable for creation of methyl esters. This procedure basically relies upon temperature, molar ratio, type of catalyst used, speed of stirring the oil and time. Fuel density, viscosity, flash point, cetane number, calorific value, cloud point, pour point and fire point likewise should be considered while producing biodiesel for diesel engines. A review of biodiesel arranged from different materials is displayed in the present study. It was uncovered that for creation of biodiesel with alluring characteristics it should have molar proportion of 1:6 with KOH as catalyst and should be mixed at a speed of 700 rpm for an hour at a temperature of 65°C. Fuel properties like flash point, fire point, calorific value, viscosity, density and cetane number are very much similar to diesel.
