In this study, the
biodiesel obtained from the waste olive oil by transesterification method has
been mixed with a 30% of diesel fuel as volume and tested with a single
cylinder direct injection diesel engine. The main purpose of this study is to
obtain purer biodiesel from waste olive oil using methyl alcohol (CH3OH)
and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as catalyst in the transesterification method and
research performance, combustion and emission characteristics in detail in a
direct injection diesel engine. The combustion, engine performance and exhaust
emission values have been also compared with diesel fuel. The test engine was
operated at a constant speed of 2200 rpm and different engine loads such as
3.25 Nm, 7.5 Nm, 11.25 Nm, 18.75 Nm. According to the experimental results, the
thermal efficiency of biodiesel is lower by about 1% to 5% than diesel. CO is
lower about 37.5 % with biodiesel than that of diesel at 18.75 Nm. CO2
is higher 41% with biodiesel than diesel at 11.25 Nm. NOx was
measured 9.5% higher than diesel fuel at 18.75 Nm. Soot emissions decreased by
37.5% compared to diesel.
