“…Hong et al (2013) synthesized biodiesel from fish oil and reported the optimized conditions to be 12:1 methanol to oil molar ratio, 2.0 wt % catalysts and 120 min reaction time at 55 o C. The biodiesel obtained was reported to comply with the ASTM specifications for biodiesel and possessed a low acid value of 0.20 mg KOH/g, kinematic viscosity of 4.60 cSt at 40 o C, with a higher heating value (HHV) of 42.1 MJ/k. Swaminathan and Sarangan (2012) reported that a lower calorific value of 37.80 MJ/kg for biodiesel produced from marine fish oil.…”

“…A triplet at 2.7 ppm, characteristics of divinyl methylene protons, appeared with an integration value of 0.26. Moreover, a triplet occurred at 1.596, 1.618, and 1.640 ppm with an integration value of 0.92 which was characteristics of β-methylene protons from carbonyl carbon (Swaminathan and Sarangan, 2012 ). Most studies conducted on the characteristics of fish oil biodiesel only reported physical and chemical characteristics within the ASTM specifications and rarely addressed one of the most important parameter i.e.…”

Abstract. Biodiesel fuel can be used as an alternative to mineral diesel, its blend up to 20% used as a commercial fuel for the existing diesel engine in many countries. However, at high blending ratio, the fuel properties are worsening. The feasibility of pure biodiesel and blended fuel at high blending ratio using different chemical additives has been reviewed in this study. The results obtained by different researchers were analysed to evaluate the fuel properties trend and engine performance and emissions with different chemical additives. It found that, variety of chemical additives can be utilised with biodiesel fuel to improve the fuel properties. Furthermore, the chemical additives usage in biodiesel is inseparable both for improving the cold flow properties and for better engine performance and emission control. Therefore, research is needed to develop biodiesel specific additives that can be adopted to improve the fuel properties and achieve best engine performance at lower exhaust emission effects.

“…The main reason for decrease of thermal efficiency with increase in blend ratio is shorter ignition delay which results in earlier start of combustion than for diesel. This increases the compression work as well as heat loss [32,33] and thus reduces the efficiency [34,35] of the engine. Figure 4 shows the effect of engine speed and different blends of fuel on brake engine torque (BET) at different engine speeds.…”

Abstract. This paper investigates the performance and emission characteristics of HCCI engines fueled with oxygenated fuels (ethanol blend). A modeling study was conducted to investigate the impact of ethanol addition on the performance, combustion and emission characteristics of a Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine fueled by diesel. One dimensional simulation was conducted using the renowned commercial software for diesel and its blend fuels with 5% (E5) and 10% ethanol (E10) (in vol.) under full load condition at variable engine speed ranging from 1000 to 2750 rpm with 250 rpm increment. The model was then validated with other researcher's experimental result. Model consists of intake and exhaust systems, cylinder, head, valves and port geometries. Performance tests were conducted for volumetric efficiency, brake engine torque, brake power, brake mean effective pressure, brake specific fuel consumption, and brake thermal efficiency, while exhaust emissions were analyzed for carbon monoxide (CO) and unburned hydrocarbons (HC. The results showed that blending diesel with ethanol increases the volumetric efficiency, brake specific fuel consumption and brake thermal efficiency, while it decreases brake engine torque, brake power and brake mean effective pressure. In term of emission characteristics, the CO emissions concentrations in the engine exhaust decrease significantly with ethanol as additive. But for HC emission, its concentration increase when apply in high engine speed. In conclusion, using Ethanol as fuel additive blend with Diesel operating in HCCI shows a good result in term of performance and emission in low speed but not recommended to use in high speed engine. Ethanol-diesel blends need to researched more to make it commercially useable.
