“…This investigation identified that the vegetable waste found nearby the marketplaces is a promising source of catalysts for biodiesel production from various natural resources. Based on their experimental findings 35 , suggested that spent sugarcane bagasse be made into a solid catalyst that could be reused, inexpensive, and utilised to make biodiesel. In addition to developing alternative materials for sustainable applications, they emphasised that waste sugarcane bagasse can be used as a low-cost base catalyst for biodiesel production on a wide scale.…”

Large quantities of vegetable biowaste are generated at marketplaces, usually in highly populated locations. On the other hand, nearby markets, hotels, and street shops generate much cooking oil waste and dispose of them in the sewage. Environmental remediation is mandatory at these places. Hence, this experimental work concentrated on preparing biodiesel using green plant wastes and cooking oil. Biowaste catalysts were produced from vegetable wastes and biofuel generated from waste cooking oil using biowaste catalysts to support diesel demand and Environmental remediation. Other organic plant wastes such as bagasse, papaya stem, banana peduncle and moringa oleifera are used as heterogeneous catalysts of this research work. Initially, the plant wastes are independently considered for the catalyst for biodiesel production; secondary, all plant wastes are mixed to form a single catalyst and used to prepare the biodiesel. In the maximum biodiesel yield analysis, the calcination temperature, reaction temperature, methanol/oil ratio, catalyst loading and mixing speed were considered to control the biodiesel production. The results reveal that the catalyst loading of 4.5 wt% with mixed plant waste catalyst offered a maximum biodiesel yield of 95%.

This work provides a high-level overview of the performance parameters of a nanoparticle-fuelled engine emulsion. The nanoparticle of cobalt chromite was created by a straightforward laboratory procedure. The nanoparticles were introduced at concentrations of 20 ppm, 40 ppm, 60 ppm, and 80 ppm, with the optimal concentration being found to be a Kapok methylester-20 (KME20) blend. Varying the timings and operated the engine at a constant speed 1800 rpm. Injections can be given at 19, 23, or 27 degrees before the before top dead centre, which are referred to as retardation, standard, and advanced, respectively. The Brake thermal efficiency is increased by 7.2% when the blend of KME20 with 80 ppm advanced is compared to the triggered ignition delay. Unburnt hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide levels in the 80 ppm-Advanced KME20 mix are reduced by 37.86% and 41.66%, respectively, when compared to the standard injection period. Oxides of nitrogen and carbon monoxide in the blend KME20 with 20ppm - retardation rose by 16.45 and 9.5 percent, respectively, compared to the duration of normal injections. Increased the brake thermal efficiency for KME20 with nanoparticles at concentration of 80 ppm is 7.5% as related to same blend without doping of nanoparticles. Using kapok methyl ester with nanoparticles doped in the standard engine can improve efficiency and performance.
