“…Table 4 shows that both the JCB and B2γ -300 have no sulfur. Thus, it can be expected that the JCB and B2γ -300 would produce no SO x emissions [22]. However, the nitrogen contents of JCB and B2γ -300 were 0.18% and 0.24% higher than that of petro-diesel , 0.02%.…”

Keyword: Jatropha curcas Biodiesel Phorbol ester Alternative fuel a b s t r a c t Biodiesel (B2γ -300) derived from second-generation gamma-irradiated Jatropha curcas (JCO2γ -300) was analyzed. HPLC and NMR were used to determine the purity of B2γ -300, and a value of greater than 99.0% was verified. Phorbol ester (PE) composition in B2γ -300 was analyzed by HPLC but could not be detected. Elemental content of nitrogen (N), carbon (C), hydrogen (H), sulfur (S) and oxygen (O) were analyzed by using NCHS. No sulfur content in B2γ -300 could be detected, but N, C, H and O had values of 0.24%, 80.54%, 6.65% and 12.57%, respectively. Overall, it was concluded that the physicochemical properties of B2γ -300 have potential as source of alternative fuels.

“…The flash point indicates the difference between a highly flammable, volatile and a relatively non-flammable non-volatile material [27]. It is expected that a good fuel should have a low auto-ignition temperature, especiallyin a diesel engine, since it has no extra mechanism to ignite the fuel in the combustion chamber.…”

Abstract. Biofuels based on vegetable oils offer the advantage being a sustainable and environmentally attractive alternative to conventional petroleum based fuel. The key issue in using vegetable oil-based fuels is oxidation stability, stoichiometric point, bio-fuel composition, antioxidants on the degradation and much oxygen with comparing to diesel gas oil. This provides a critical review of current understanding of main factor in storage method which affecting the biodiesel properties and characteristics. In the quest for fulfill the industry specifications standard; the fuel should be stored i n a clean, dry and dark environment. Water and sediment contamination are basically housekeeping issues for biodiesel. Degradation by oxidation yields products that may compromise fuel properties, impair fuel quality and engine performance. The effect of storage method on the fuel properties and burning process in biodiesel fuel combustion will strongly affects the exhaust emissions. IntroductionBurning fossil fuels such as coal, diesel and gas produces greenhouse gases give impacts on the environment. A range of greenhouse gases were produced when fossil fuels are burned, these gases include carbon dioxide, water vapour, methane and nitrous oxides. These gases trap the sun's heat in the atmosphere, it concentrate and increase the heat of the sun where it works quite similar to the lens in a magnifying glass. This is called the greenhouse effect.Studies have found that first-generation biofuels produced from current feedstock's using the most efficient systems and carbon releases results in emission reductions in the range of 20-60 per cent relative to fossil fuels. Generally, biofuels offer many priorities, including sustainability, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, regional development, social structure and agriculture and securi-
