The globe is in search for an upgraded and compatible alternative of diesel to triumph over pollution and its limited availability issues. Researchers are using biodiesel from various edible and non‐edible oil sources to reduce environmental footprint of diesel. This article compares the performance and emission characteristics of diesel engines fueled by edible and non‐edible oil biodiesel. In this work, five biodiesels (methyl esters of microalgae, jatropha, karanja, soybean, and sunflower) are tested and transesterification is used to produce methyl esters to optimize their physiochemical properties. It is observed that all the properties lie in tolerance limits. To examine the compatibility of the proposed methyl esters two performance characteristics, brake thermal efficiency and brake specific fuel consumption are examined. Further, the emission characteristics such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and carbon dioxides are investigated. To validate results the blend characteristics are compared to diesel. The relative analysis revels that the brake thermal efficiency is declined by 8.87% as compared to diesel whereas the brake specific fuel consumption is increased by 4.28%. The carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon levels are decreased by 7.32% and 20.56% whereas nitrogen oxides and carbon dioxide levels are increased by 7.47% and 4.80%, respectively. The analysis infers that microalgae biodiesel gives adequately better characteristics.

The diesel engine performance plus exhaust emission attributes are influenced by different strictures. Impact of compression ratio and mixing (blending) proportion of biodiesel in petroleum diesel on diesel engine performance plus exhaust emission has researched in this study. The engine attributes were learned at various compression ratios shifting from 15.5 to 17.5 and utilizing various mixes of microalgae biodiesel with diesel. For benchmarking comparison, the results have been compared to test results found using petroleum diesel as fuel. Obtained experimental results uncover that the engine brake thermal efficiency increments as compression ratio increments for all mixes. The brake specific fuel consumption diminishes with increment of compression ratio for tested fuel mixes. At the point when compression ratio was expanded from 15.5 to 17.5, the HC and CO emissions diminished radically and NO X expanded impressively.

“…Biodiesel is the most widely used biofuel among renewable energy sources due to its advantages for the environment, such as biodegradability and clean burning [3][4][5]. Because of its similarities to petroleum-based diesel, it is regarded as the ideal alternative for diesel fuel in diesel engines [6,7]. Furthermore, its adoption has the capacity to lower or eliminate reliance on fossil fuels, resulting in cost savings for the vast majority of nations that depend heavily on petroleum imports for their energy needs [4].…”

Algae are a desirable biodiesel feedstock because they take up little space, have a high algal-cell biomass per unit area, and can sustainably meet a large portion of the world’s future energy needs. Using several bibliometric indicators, this study assesses the research productivity of algae for biodiesel production. The dataset was retrieved from the Scopus database using an appropriate keyword search. The VOSviewer v1.6.18 and Biblioshiny in R -studio were then utilised for bibliometric analysis and network visualisation. The study found that, with the first article being published in 1990 and an annual scientific growth rate of 14.76%, research on algae for the generation of biodiesel is still in its early phases. Although the possibility of utilising algae to produce biodiesel was originally mentioned in 1990, it was only until 2006 that several researchers started to show an interest in the subject. 101 articles were published in 2015, which is the most ever. The most prolific countries in terms of publications, ongoing collaborations and cooperation, best publishing institutions, and prestigious journals, as well as the most productive researchers and the most highly referenced works in the field, have all been recognised and presented. Finally, a keyword co-occurrence analysis of the subject was presented and discussed to provide research insights into the field. The bibliometric indicators of the study are intended to aid researchers in finding potential research topics, high-quality scientific literature, and suitable journals for publishing research on algae for biodiesel production.
