“…Feedstock like lignocellulosic biomass which includes agricultural wastes (rice-straw, cornstalks and sugarcane-bagasse), forestry wastes (wood-pulp, saw-mill and papermill rejects) and energy crops (switch grass, elephant grass and agave) that can be subjected to gasification, pyrolysis, steam reforming and bacterial fermentation to yield platform chemicals. Valorization of biomass to esteem included items and vitality is set to occur in biorefineries which could be viewed as similar to the present oil refineries [30]. For a nation like India with huge prolific grounds thriven by ordinary regular precipitation through rainstorm, there is a monstrous open door for gathering enormous amounts of lignocellulosic biomass and to ubiquitous diesel Alcohol Contribution over Conventional Fuel DOI: http://dx.doi.org /10.5772/intechopen.89084 engines.…”

Biofuels have caught the eye of engine specialists as far back as the oil emergency and heightening expenses of petro-synthetic compounds cropped up in the 1970s. Ethanol and methanol were the most broadly inquired alcohols in IC engines. Higher alcohols are alluring second/third era biofuels that can be created from sugary, dull and lignocellulosic biomass feedstocks utilizing reasonable pathways. Developing worries of petroleum product consumption, oil-value variances, heightening vitality requests and stringent discharge guidelines are driving established researchers to discover elective sustainable biofuels for use in diesel engines. Among the biofuels like biogas, bioalcohol and biodiesel, alcohol is by all accounts generally appealing. Biogas requires high weight for its utilization in vehicle and its spillage can be risky. Biodiesel from consumable vegetable oil can cause insufficiency in sustenance supply. Everything being considered, the utilization of lower alcohols like methanol and ethanol in slow speed engines shows certain complexities because of their low cetane number, high inert warmth of vaporization and high protection from auto-start. Further the less calorific respect and poor miscibility with diesel limit their utilization in diesel motors.

“…Carbon(C) and hydrogen (H) concentration of diesel-ethanol blends reduce because C and H content of ethanol is lower than the petroleum fuels. It lowers the carbon emissions, carbon monoxide (CO) emissions, and unburned hydrocarbon (HC) emissions but reduced C and H concentration fuel blends decrease the higher specific energy of the mixture [29,30]. Ethanol has some disadvantages such as blend stability and phase separation due to lower miscibility of mixture ethanol with its blends.…”

CI engine is an important and widely used engine in the power generation industries generally fuelled by diesel. The use of CI engine vehicles is increasing continuously day by day which in turns diesel fuel consumption and engine emissions increases. Limitation of these conventional fuel as well as continuously increasing global warming by engine emissions has motivated to researchers in the field of alternative renewable fuel source like biofuel such as biodiesel, methanol, ethanol etc. Ethanol is the most commonly researched alcoholic fuel as alternative fuel. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of ethanol-diesel fuel blend on engine performance such as BSFC, BTE, brake power, brake torque as well as engine emission parameters such as NOx, CO, HC, exhaust gas temperature etc. of a CI engine. Through this study it was found that ethanol significantly reduces HC, PM, NOx and exhaust gas temperature but slightly increases fuel consumption. Also, ethanol additive enhanced engine performance like BTE, brake power and brake torque. The outcomes of this study may help for researchers to understand the effect of ethanol addition on engine performances and emissions at different ethanol-diesel fuel blend concentration for CI engine.

“…are applicable in Russia [135][136][137]. Therefore, there are opportunities for production and using liquid BF in volumes sufficient for utilization as part of 5-10% mixture with gasoline [138][139][140][141][142]. Appearing of corresponding plan indicators may be expected to assist in the development of this type of activity and enhancement of environmental situation.…”

Diffusion of the biofuels (BF) using is justified by opening up the opportunities for obtaining fuel and energy from previously inaccessible sources and by the existence of energy-deficient regions, in particular in Russia. Works of different scientists on the problems of creating and using BF were the methodological basis of this study. Information on the state and prospects of the development of renewable energy sources in Russian regions was collected from regulatory documents and was obtained by employing a questionnaire survey. For the study of the collected materials, the different methods of comparative analysis, and the methods of expert assessments were used. The results of the Status-Quo analysis of BF production in Russia have shown that the creation of BF performed relatively successfully. However, there are many more perspectives, connected with expanding the utilization of the different raw materials. Also, the analysis of organizational and economic mechanisms applied for production of BF and the obtained data on several organizations-producers allowed for proposing six indexes for the assessment of the BF production effectiveness. It is suggested that BF production in Russia will contribute to the sustainable development of a number of the country's regions in the near future.Energies 2019, 12, 3948 2 of 30 impact of permanent anthropogenic factors has required the taking of appropriate measures in this field both at the federal and regional levels. In particular, the accumulation of industrial, agricultural, and household wastes is becoming an essential incentive for the development of innovative activities aiming at the production of biofuel (BF). According to the existing data [3], the resource potential of recyclable organic waste biomass, including solid household wastes and sediments of wastewaters reaches 13,490.26 tons of coal equivalent (TCE) per year in Russia. This study led both at the federal level and in particular regions which have significant differences in terms of economic, geographic, and climatic conditions. According to pessimistic forecasts, the share of green energy in the Russian economy will arrive at 3-5% by 2035, according to positive ones, it will be equal to 8-10%. The proposed share of BF in the production of electric and heat energy with targeted management could be about 2-3% [4].Different geographic, climatic, economic, and other conditions in regions of Russia necessitate solving several scientific problems for optimization of the existing regional programs for the provision of sustainable development and determination of the role of REn and BF production in them.Therefore, the progress in BF production achieved in some leading countries has become a significant factor which causes a positive impact on the sustainable development of their economies. This gives rise to the suggestion that Russia has some conditions for a more extensive application of REn, in particular, for BF production and use. Correspondingly, this article characterizes some general trends of B...
