Abstract

Environmental effects and economic conditions have led
researchers to find alternative energy sources so that the interest of
biodiesel production from inedible oils is continue to rise due to its low
price. Using raw vegetable oil as fuel cannot be evaluated possible due to
several unfavorable effects. Thanks to the transesterification reaction raw
vegetable oil viscosity can be reduced. This study is aimed to investigation of
emissions of B100 waste frying oil methyl ester and B100 crambe abyssinica oil methyl ester. Experimental tests were
conducted to single-cylinder, four-stroke, direct injected diesel engine with
air cooling system at 2200 1/min fixed engine speed and with four different
engine loads. The engine loads are (BMEP, 0.12 MPa, 0.24 MPa, 0.36 MPa and 0.48
MPa), and at the beginning of the tests, the engine was warmed with No. 2
diesel fuel. The oil and inlet air temperatures were kept at 85 ±2 °C and 25 ±1
°C, respectively. The results obtained from the experimental study were
compared with No. 2 diesel fuel. The effects of fuels on CO, THC, NOx and smoke
emissions were investigated. Brake specific fuel consumption of test fuels was
also examined. According to the obtained results, B100 fuels can be used as an
alternative fuel in a diesel engine.
