“…As shown in Figure 7, the viscosity increases in line with the increasing of PPO ratio and decreases with the increase of temperature. The same result is also indicated by Nozomu et al [7], and Sallevelt et al [5]. They had measured the effect of the temperature rise on kinematic viscosity of biofuel, which derived from a palm methyl ester and a vegetable oil, respectively.…”

“…The implementation of PPO that used in another kind of power generation plant is not yet conducted due to a lack of know-how related to the use of PPO, and there is a big concern about the impact on the engine operating performance. The previous studies show that studies on the use of SVO or PPO as a blended fuel in a gas turbine were conducted limited only for a micro gas turbine that has a capacity below 1 MW or only for laboratory scale study [2] - [5]. Therefore, the impact of PPO fuel blend on the gas turbine operating performance is still insufficient.…”

“…However, by increasing an injection temperature of PPO fuel, the effects of viscosity on an atomization pressure at the nozzle and an incomplete combustion at combustor chambers can be minimized [2], [3], [5]. The increase of the temperature in the combustor chambers leads to increase on NOx emission level and decrease on CO emission level [4], [5].…”

The use of Pure Plant Oil (PPO) as a fuel blend in a power plant is mandatory as stipulated in the Ministerial Decree of Energy and Mineral Resource of the Republic of Indonesia. However, the implementation of PPO used in power generation has many obstacles due to a lack of information concerning the impacts of PPO used in the operating performance of the power generation engine. In this study, the effect of PPO as a blended fuel with High-Speed Diesel (HSD) was studied by using the gas turbine with a capacity of 18 MW. The PPO was blended based on volume with a ratio of 0%, 5%, 10%, and 20%. As the results, it is shown that the use of PPO with a blend ratio of 20% is the maximum fuel blend ratio according to the threshold value of a flue gas temperature and a vibration velocity in the gas turbine.

“…The density of this oil mixture is slightly higher compared to biodiesel, whereas the surface tension is nearly the same within the respective temperature ranges. Both these [20]. The spray quality measured in the present study can therefore be compared to emission data obtained from the combustion tests.…”

Feedstock for biodiesel production has changed over time and it varies depending on regions. Reports and journal articles on biodiesel feedstock resources over the last decade from 2006 to 2016 were reviewed in this article. The regional trends still maintain as the USA and the EU still predominantly use soybean oil and rapeseed oil, respectively, and palm oil is the major source of biodiesel in Asia. It is expected that the food‐crop based biodiesel will continue to be dominant for the next decade. However, it was found that uses of animal fats and used cooking oil are increasing both in the USA and the EU. Because of the increasing diversity in feedstock inputs to biodiesel, it is necessary to better understand the effects of feedstock characteristics on engine performance and emissions. In this review, we limit the reports on biodiesel emissions to those who used 100% biodiesel combusted in a one‐cylinder, four‐stroke, direct injection engine set up in a laboratory. All the emission results were obtained from the same or similar engine conditions to fairly compare them. CO, CO2, NOx, and PM emissions are compared between the biodiesels derived from soybean oil, rapeseed oil, palm oil, jatropha oil, used cooking oil, animal fats, and algal oil. It was found that more emission studies are needed for algal biodiesel. More in‐depth studies are necessary for PM characteristics including the compositions of trace metals, elemental and organic carbon. © 2017 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 37: 7–19, 2018
