The global issue for countries currently is the search for raw materials and the production of bioenergy, such as biodiesel fuels. Promising biodiesel fuels include green diesel fuel produced from hydrogenation of vegetable oils. Three methods have been proposed to obtain high-quality and environmentally friendly diesel fuel: compounding green diesel with hydro-treated diesel fuel, compositions of improved fuel with bio-additives, and two-component mixtures of environmentally friendly diesel fuel with bio-additives. These methods can produce fuel for diesel engines with improved lubricating properties and reduced wear scar diameter.
Currently, the global issue for countries is the search for raw materials and the production of bioenergy within their country; bioenergy also includes biodiesel fuels. One of the most promising biodiesel fuels is the green diesel fuel produced by the hydrogenation of vegetable oils. Three methods have been proposed to obtain high-quality biodiesel and environmentally friendly diesel fuel: compounding green diesel with hydro-treated diesel fuel, compositions of the improved fuel << green diesel >> with bio-additives, and two-component mixtures of environmentally friendly diesel fuel with bio-additives. Using these methods, it is possible to produce fuel for diesel engines with improved lubricating properties, the wear scar diameter is reduced to 232 microns, according to EN 590: 2009, this value standard is up to 460 microns. The optimal quantitative composition of three-component environmentally friendly diesel fuel with improved lubricity was established. The dependence of the change in the lubricating properties of environmentally friendly diesel fuel on the quantitative and qualitative composition are established. A mathematical equation describing the dependence of the change in the corrected wear spot on the amount of anti-wear additive in the green diesel fuel is derived. Three-component compositions of environmentally friendly diesel fuel make it possible to obtain fuel that meets the requirements of the EN 590: 2009 standard and to expand the resources for obtaining fuel, as well as to improve the environmental and operational characteristics of the fuel.
