Geleneksel yakıtların kullanımından kaynaklanan hava kirliliği ve sera gazı etkisinin çoğalması gibi nedenlerin yanında petrol fiyatlarının yükselmesi, enerji maliyetlerininde önemli ölçüde artmasına neden olmaktadır.Bu ve benzeri sebeplerden kaynaklı olarak yakıt alternatifleri üzerindeki çalışmalar yeni ve yenilenebilir yakıt olarak biyodizel üzerinde yoğunlaşmıştır.Ancak Biyodizel, hammaddesinin Tarım arazilerinde gıda üretimi için ayrılan arazilerin bir kısmının daha çok kar elde edileceği düşünülerek yağ bitkisi tarımına ayrılması ile az gelişmiş ülkelerde gıda fiyatlarında artış ve gıda temininde zorluk yaşanmasına sebep olmuştur. Bundan kaynaklı olarak tarımsal amaçlı kullanılmayan alanlarda rahatlıkla yetişebilen üstelik hektar başına verimi diğer biyodizel kaynaklarına kıyasla çok yüksek olan mikroalgler yeni biyodizel kaynağı olarak görülmeye başlamıştır. Bu çalışmadada mikroalglerden tranesterifikasyon yöntemi ile biyodizel üretilmiş elde edilen mikroalg biyodizeli, dizel yakıtıyla belirli oranlarda karıştırılarak tek silindirli bir dizel test motorunda denenmiştir.
Air pollution caused by the use of conventional fuels, increasing effect of greenhouse gases, as well as the increase in oil prices result in significant boost in energy costs. As a result, studies on alternative fuels have concentrated on biodiesel as a new and renewable fuel. However, as the raw material of biodiesel is allocated to the cultivation of oil crop plants, considering that some of the lands assigned for food production would make more profit, it has caused an increase in food prices and troubles in food supply in less developed countries. Microalgae, which easily grow on fields that are not used for agricultural purposes and for which yield per hectare is very high compared to other biodiesel sources, are considered to be a new biodiesel source today. In the current study, microalgae biodiesel derived from microalgae through the transesterification method was mixed with diesel fuel in certain amounts and tested in a single-cylinder diesel test engine.
