WCO biodiesel production by heterogeneous catalyst and using cadmium (II)-based supramolecular coordination polymer additives to improve diesel/biodiesel fueled engine performance and emissions

Medhat Elkelawy et al.

Summary: Research organizations and researchers are currently focused on finding and producing clean and alternative fuels, such as biofuels, as well as utilizing new technologies to reduce harmful emissions. The use of heterogeneous catalyst for producing biodiesel shows promising results, with a maximum biodiesel yield of 95%. Experimental results indicate that adding SCP 1 nanomaterials can significantly reduce UHC, CO, and NOx emissions, but also lead to an increase in CO2 emissions while improving brake thermal efficiency.

A Study on Performance and Emission Characteristics of Diesel Engine Using Ricinus Communis (Castor Oil) Ethyl Esters

Munimathan Arunkumar et al.

Summary: Countries worldwide are turning to alternative fuels like biodiesel to reduce environmental pollution. This study focused on the properties of castor oil biodiesel and compared its performance on diesel engines at different engine loads and speeds. Results showed that B5 and B20 biodiesel samples had similar power output at 1500 rpm, with diesel fuel showing better control, while at 2000 rpm, B5 samples had increased power but B20 samples performed similarly to diesel fuel.
