Study about Effect of Processed Biodiesel in Physicochemical Properties of Mixtures with Diesel Fuel in order to Increase their Antifouling Action

Abstract

In this paper we try to study how processed biodiesel (with hydrophilic polymer) influences the physicochemical properties of their mixtures with diesel fuel. Using specific volumes of these mixtures, we determine humidity, density, kinematic viscosity and heat of combustion in order to investigate the effect of the polymer. The results show that humidity and kinematic viscosity could decrease considerably, so that mixtures of diesel and processed biodiesel become less pollutant to the environment than Diesel fuel.

Examining the physicochemical properties and engine performance of biodiesel from whole seed and extracted kernels of egusi (Citrullus lanatus)

“…For purposes of comparison, Table 2 highlights the properties of DESO-ME and WESO-ME with methyl esters of some other seed oils. The literature has shown that a high percentage of linoleic and oleic acid in beneficial for a higher quality biodiesel 29,30 . The oleic and linoleic acid values for both DESO-ME and WESO-ME were 16.6% and 63.5% and 16.6% and 62.1%, respectively.…”

Amplification of Antipollution Action of JP8 using a Bioorganic Compound

“…2) has been prepared in a quality of 5 g we introduced this amount in a sample of the same jet fuel (as above) of a volume 1000 mL (1L) (5 g of polymer is defined from the limits of chemical additives in liquid fuels which is 1-4 Kg/tn). This sample stays in an environment temperature for 45 minutes and we observe that the polymer remains indissoluble [5]. Next, we filtrate the mixture via the method ASTM D-2276 [7] by using the filtration device Millipore.…”

“…For this aim we introduce in a sample of JP8 the hydrophilic polymer Thermal Polyaspartate Anion TPA for forty five (45) minutes [5]. It is stressed that the volume of JP8 and the mass of the polymer maintain stable.…”

“…Our effort focuses on, how the conformation of the hydrophilic polymer via charged groups and dynamic absorption of water molecules (because we expect the polymer to retain these molecules) [5], acts on the physicochemical properties of JP8 which have significant role in qualitative control of jet fuels and their behavior during combustion. For this aim we introduce in a sample of JP8 the hydrophilic polymer Thermal Polyaspartate Anion TPA for forty five (45) minutes [5].…”

Using a biodegradable polymer to reduce the acidity of biodiesel and biodiesel/petroleum diesel fuel blends

“…To some extent, quality standards represent a certain compromise so that all the fuel performance requirements may be satisfied. By controlling the properties of diesel fuel, it is possible to use one grade of fuel in millions of compression-ignition engines [2].In addition, biodiesel has become a fundamentally important area of focus for work in both the scientific and production sectors, since this alternative energy source can reduce the use of conventional fuels [3]. It is particularly important to note that biodiesel (initially biodiesel/diesel blends and ultimately pure biodiesel) is suitable from both an energy standpoint and in terms of environmental friendliness.…”
