“…The selection of a pump that is compatible with the fluid is crucial, as biodiesel is a flammable fluid. According to Chiavola and Palmieri [53], fluid properties have several factors that can influence pump performance and other hydraulic components. Table 5 shows the specifications of pumps used for the proposed designed system.…”

The biodiesel production process is extensively studied in the literature, focusing on mechanisms, modeling, and economic aspects, yet plant design and fluid flow losses remain underexplored areas. The study addressed this gap by designing a biodiesel production plant, analyzing flow losses, and developing a pipe network and suitable pump models. In this study, an integration of biodiesel production plant design and simulation of continuous production of Calophyllum inophyllum biodiesel was investigated. Biodiesel production encompasses complex stages that involve systematic planning and system design. The goal of the plant design is to reduce the losses that occur during the conversion process, which can reduce the capital cost of the plant. A few assumptions were made when selecting biodiesel plant materials, such as pipes, pumps, fittings, and bends. These assumptions were based on considerations of the biodiesel fluid properties and pressure requirements. On the other hand, Aspen Plus was used to simulate the biodiesel production process. Calophyllum inophyllum was considered oil as the biodiesel feedstock and was inputted to the Aspen Plus as triglyceride composition. The simulation was carried out with rigorous kinetic reactions using the Non-Random Two-Liquid (NRTL) method to predict the liquid equilibrium in the reactor. Results revealed that the designed steel pipe meets safety requirements with a bursting pressure of 49.68MPa, capable of withstanding the maximum pressure of 4 bar and turbulent flow conditions. Additionally, the selected pump satisfies the required head and flow rate, ensuring efficient fluid movement. Moreover, simulation results closely matched experimental data, and 88% of biodiesel yield was recorded.

The article describes the impact of hydrogen-containing vegetable fuels consumption with modern injection apparatus. The fuel in question is B100 rapeseed oil ethyl ester. The process of atomizing fuel in the engine at high temperature and in a high pressure chamber plays an important role in the combustion processes in the CI engine. The elements responsible for supplying fuel to the engine’s combustion chamber are the injectors and the injection pump. The paper presents the construction and operation of modern injection pumps and fuel injectors, the methods of their diagnosis are discussed, the important role of precision, and the course of their wear phenomenon are indicated. The paper discusses the impact of hydrogen-containing “green” vegetable fuels on the durability and reliability of injection pumps and fuel injectors used in Common Rail systems. In addition, the tests on the operating parameters of the fuel injector and pump operating on conventional fuel and hydrogen-containing “green” biofuel were carried out.
