“…Comparative studies of the performance and emission characteristics of fly ash coated diesel fueled with pongamia and rice bran oil methyl ester blends have been conducted by Hosseinalizadeh. 52 Diesel and biodiesel both reduce HC and smoke emissions more effectively. Due to the biodiesels’ greater oxygen content, NO x emissions from all these fuels and their mixes are higher than diesel ones.…”

Depending on the heat content and compression ignition (CI) engine combustion, biodiesel is a viable substitute fuel. Biodiesel is an oxygenated, safe, sulfur-free, biodegradable, and renewable fuel. It may be utilized in CI engines in any combination with diesel fuel without requiring the engine to be significantly modified. Many research studies have been made with several biodiesels as diesel substitutes, including Pongamia pinnata, Jatropha curcas, Mangifera indica, and Madhuca longifolia. The topic of the current review is the potential of renewable fuels to outperform diesel fuel in terms of performance, combustion, and emission characteristics. In the present study, CI engines are fueled with biodiesels made from Man. indica, Mad. longifolia, and pongamia seed oil. Adopting low heat rejection (LHR) mode CI engines and adding an antioxidant agent in addition to the biodiesel blends may resolve the issue of these biodiesels’ poorer performance and increased NO emission. Both these additions may provide positive approaches in both performance and emission.

“…Deterministic and stochastic models are the most frequently used ones to solve supply chain problems. Deterministic models are divided into two categories, namely those with single-objective functions and those with multi-objective functions (Hosseinalizadeh, Khamseh, & Akhlaghi, 2019). The mathematical mixed integer linear programing (MILP) is the most widely used solution to biofuel supply chain management problems with a single-objective function (Ahn, Lee, Lee, & Han, 2015;Babazadeh, Ghaderi, & Pishvaee, 2019).…”

Recently, due to the efficiency of cultivating microalgae, researchers and investors have paid considerable attention to the production of different biofuel products that are environmentally friendly. In this study, a two-stage deterministic model is proposed to design a microalgae-based biofuels and co-products supply chain network (MBCSCN). In the first stage, the appropriate locations for the cultivation of microalgae are identified through the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). In the second stage, a deterministic mathematical mixed integer linear programing (MILP) model is developed for a period of five years based on the criteria of economic and environmental impacts. The economic objective function maximizes the overall profit, while the environmental impacts objective function seeks to minimize the consumed fossil fuel throughout the supply chain. Then, a multi-objective MILP optimization problem is solved using the ε-constraint method. The proposed model is evaluated through a case study in Iran. It has helped to identify appropriate locations for the cultivation of microalgae and to specify the required quantity of feedstock, the species of microalgae, the required technology, and the transportation modes in each step of the supply chain.

“…Iran's energy policies should be directed to increasing supply and demand security by helping low-carbon industries. In the past, electricity was not considered a traded good, but recently, due to countries' geopolitical position and their access to fossil fuels and energy security issues, commercial looking for electricity is increasing [4]. The suggestion of electricity trading generated by different renewable energy sources has been introduced to Europe in the past several years by Greece and North Africa [5].…”

Energy demand in Iran is increasing because of many reasons, for instance, low price, population and GDP growth. Its trend shows that this situation could not continue for many years, so it needs reviewing in energy policy in Iran. The aim of this paper is reviewing the whole energy system of Iran and its possible future and offering some policies for solving current and future problems. First of all, this study investigates the trend of growth of some parameters like GDP, electricity price, population, CO2 emission and electricity consumption in eight years. After that, by calculating the price of electricity generated in Iran under three different circumstances, this study is able to investigate the electricity and natural gas trade according to the price of them. Studying the renewable energy effects on CO2 emission reduction, subsidy reduction and water saving lead this study to prepare and policy offer. At the end of this paper, results show there is a lack of idea in energy economic in Iran, and two policies will be offered by considering this aspect.
