An Investigation on Abnormal Combustion, Emissions and Performance of Novel Jojoba Bio-Gasoline and Its Blends with Gasoline in a Spark-Ignition Engine

On the ignition delay of two types of Castor oil bio-diesel using shock tube experiments

“…These properties of bio-diesels are high energy content, cetane number, Oxygen content, low ash contents, and nil sulphur contents. And, the properties of bio-gasoline as high energy content, octane number, Oxygen content, volatility, low ash contents, and nil sulphur contents are used for developing the resistance of the abnormal combustion, performance and emissions of spark ignition engines [3,4]. Vegetable oils are produced from numerous oil seed crops.…”

“…Some of these oils have already been evaluated as substitutes for diesel, and gasoline fuels. These include the following vegetable oil fuels, and their methyl esters: raw sunflower oil [1], blends of raw sunflower, cottonseed, corn, and olive oil with diesel fuel [2], raw rapeseed oil [5], soybean oil methyl ester [6], distilled opium poppy oil and refined rapeseed oil [7], jatropha oil [7][8][9], Jojoba oil [4,10], etc. Of the many renewable sources known, Castor oil appears to be a promising contender for producing diesel fuel as a promising scope for cultivation in the relatively hot Egyptian weather.…”

On the Ignition Delay of Jojoba Bio-Diesel and Its Blends with Gas Oil

“…where P 1 = initial total pressure in the driven section and (8) where T 1 is the temperature of hot mixture inside driven section (T a ) and Ms is given by [14]…”

“…The first one was volatile and was termed "jojoba bio-gasoline". It was examined as an additive to gasoline in a spark ignition engine [9] and was examined as an alternative fuel to gasoline in spark ignition engines [8]. The second synthesized biofuel had properties similar to those of gas oil; hence it was termed as jojoba bio-diesel.…”

Experimental cyclic variations of diesel engine burning pyrolysis castor oil blends

“…4 These oils and their esters have been evaluated as substitutes for diesel fuel, such as raw sunflower, cotton seed, corn, olive, rapeseed, soybean, rapeseed oil, Jatropha, and Jojoba oils. [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Castor oil appears to be a promising competitor for diesel fuel as a promising scope for cultivation in the relatively hot Egyptian weather. 11,13,14 Several methods for converting vegetable oil into biofuel have been frequently investigated.…”
