Today, reducing GHG emissions is an important goal worldwide. Initially, first-generation biofuels were considered as a solution; however, they created a conflict between food and fuel. Advanced biofuels, which use non-edible materials, have emerged and are becoming more widespread, thus resolving this conflict. The paper aimed to investigate the three pillars of advanced biofuels’ sustainability (economic, environmental, and social). In the frame of a systematic literature review, 41 out of the initially screened 3407 articles were analyzed in depth. The economic aspect of sustainability was the most frequently occurring topic, followed by the environmental aspect, while the number of articles related to the social aspect was limited. From the economic point of view, all the analyzed articles agreed that advanced biofuels are far from commercialization at this stage; however, there are promising options related to different feedstocks or production technologies. Advanced biofuels perform unequivocally better environmentally than even conventional biofuels. For third-generation biofuels, negative net GHG emissions can even be possible, while fourth-generation biofuels can theoretically be produced from CO2. With respect to the social pillar, job creation was the core element of the articles analyzed. This can be experienced at the farm, production, and research levels. Although the commercialization of advanced biofuel production will take time, humanity must turn to them in order to avoid the food versus fuel problem, as well as to successfully fight against climate change and global warming.

“…The physicomechanical properties of Linas variety safflower seed are given in Table 1. Keskin et al (2013) examined the engine performance and exhaust emission values of fuel A (60% diesel, 30% biodiesel, 5% ethanol, 5% butanol) and fuel B (40% diesel-50% biodiesel-5% ethanol-5% butanol) mixture fuels, which they tested in a single-cylinder, four-stroke diesel engine under full load conditions, in comparison with diesel fuel. As a result of the study, they stated that the emission values of the blended fuels showed a significant improvement compared to the diesel fuel and that the emission values of fuel B, carbon monoxide (CO) and, hydrocarbon (HC), decreased by 87.01% and 87.50%, respectively.…”

In this study, linas, a newly developed variety of the safflower plant, were used for biodiesel production. Fuel properties and exhaust emission values of biodiesel fuel (B100) and alternative blended fuels containing different volumetric amounts of diesel (M100), biodiesel (B100) and n-butanol (BU) or n-pentanol (P) (diesel / biodiesel / n-butanol and diesel / biodiesel / n-pentanol) were evaluated in comparison with the reference fuel diesel (M100). In addition, in the study, the effects of 2-ethylhexyl nitrate (EHN) on fuel properties and emission values have been examined by adding EHN cetane improver additive to mixture fuels at a concentration of 2000 ppm. Exhaust emission tests of all fuels and mixtures were carried out in a four-cylinder, four-stroke, and direct injection diesel engine at different speeds and full load conditions. According to the results of the research, the fuel properties of diesel, biodiesel, and blended fuels have been determined that comply with biodiesel and diesel fuel standards. Density values of these fuels were determined between 0.830 to 0.8885 kg m-3, kinematic viscosities 2.83 and 4.57 mm2s-1, calorific values 40.13 and 43.4 MJ kg-1, water content 48.015 and 499 ppm, cetane numbers 48.8 and 55.8, cloud point, cold filter plugging point, and pour point -13.9 and -1.4 ºC, -22 and -10 ºC, -15 and

“…In terms of diesel engines, important advantages of alcohol are lower viscosity and higher oxygen content. Oxygen atoms in the molecular structure of alcohols improve combustion efficiency and emission characteristics of diesel engines [3]. Important disadvantages are lower Cetane number and lower heating values [6][7][8].…”

Bu deneysel çalışmada propan-dizel yakıt karışımlarının direk enjeksiyonlu tek silindirli dizel motorda kullanımının yakıt tüketimi ve egzoz emisyonları üzerindeki etkisi araştırılmıştır. Hacimsel olarak %3 propan-%97 dizel ve %6 propan-%94 dizel içeren karışımlar test yakıtı olarak kullanılmıştır. Test yakıtlarına ait yakıt özellikleri dizel yakıt özelliklerine göre farklılık göstermiştir. Dizel yakıtıyla kıyaslandığında, viskozite, ısıl değer, parlama noktası ve setan değerlerinde düşük oranda azalma olmuştur. Motor testleri tam yük şartlarında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Karışımların özgül yakıt tüketimi değerlerinde düşme eğilimi gözlemlenmiştir. Genel olarak, karışım yakıtlara ait egzoz emisyonu değerlerinde iyileşmeler sağlanmıştır. CO ve Partikül madde emisyon değerlerinde sırasıyla % 25.37 ve %12.08'lere ulaşan azalmalar elde edilmiştir. NOx emisyonu değerlerinde kayda değer bir değişim gözlemlenmemiştir.
