“…As can be seen in this figure, the distillation temperature increases with the distilled percentage in all curves. The trends in the curves are in accordance with other authors [37,38]. The distillation curve provides information on the composition, the properties, and the behavior of the fuel during its cooling and its use [39].…”

The production of biodiesel as renewable, easily biodegradable, and nontoxic alternative to fossil fuels is expensive when it is derived from virgin vegetable oils. In this study, waste frying oil was used to produce biodiesel by ultrasound-assisted transesterification. The reaction was carried out with methanol, and sodium hydroxide was used as catalyst. This method is an efficient, timesaving, and economically functional tool since the process can be carried out in a shorter reaction time, at lower temperature, and with a lower quantity of catalysts compared to other techniques. The biodiesel produced by this method was analyzed for its fatty acid methyl ester composition, density, moisture and volatile matter content, acid value, saponification value, iodine value, distillation curves, and cetane number.

“…The higher NO emissions with oxygenated blends depend on several factors including in-cylinder gas temperature, residence time, fuel-borne oxygen, fuel properties and injection timing [23]. It was reported earlier that waste cook biodiesel has higher unsaturated fatty acids than saturated fatty acids [24]. In a review paper authored by Hoekman et al [25], it was reported a correlation between unsaturation and higher adiabatic flame temperature that influences NO formation.…”

Exploration of sustainable fuels and their influence on reductions in diesel emissions are nowadays a challenge for the engine and fuel researchers. This study investigates the role of fuel-borne oxygen on engine performance and exhaust emissions with a special emphasis on diesel particulate and nitric oxide (NO) emissions. A number of oxygenated-blends were prepared with waste cooking biodiesel as a base oxygenated fuel. Triacetin, a derivative from transesterified biodiesel was chosen for its high oxygen content and superior fuel properties. The experimental campaign was conducted with a 6-cylinder, common rail turbocharged diesel engine equipped with highly precise instruments for nano and other size particles and other emissions. All experiments were performed in accordance with European Stationary Cycle (ESC 13-mode). A commercial diesel was chosen as a reference fuel with 0% oxygen and five other oxygenated blends having a range of 6.02-14.2% oxygen were prepared. The experimental results revealed that the oxygenated blends having higher a percentage of fuel-borne oxygen reduced particulate matter (PM), particle number (PN), unburned hydrocarbon (UBHC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions to a significantly low level with a slight penalty of NO emissions. The main target of this study was to effectively utilise triacetin as an additive for waste cooking biodiesel and suppress emissions without deteriorating engine performance. The key finding of this investigation is the significant reductions in both particle mass and number emissions simultaneously without worsening engine performance with triacetin-biodiesel blends. Reductions in both particle mass and number emissions with a cost-effective additive would be a new dimension for the fuel and engine researchers to effectively use triacetin as an emission suppressor in the future.

“…From the tables, it is seen that the saturated fatty acid content in Sesbania oil was 26.99 wt%, which imparted higher oxidative and thermal stabilities, leading to a slower deterioration rate for the lipid characteristics. 40,41 This tendency makes MESSO a good insulating uid in transformers to withstand high-temperature environments or long-term storage conditions.…”
