The Effect of the Addition of Biodiesel in the Fossil Diesel to Its Characterizing Parameters

Abstract

Nowadays it is clear that all the scientific efforts are directed of finding the alternative resources for the fuels, in all national and international levels of different countries, as well as in our country. Due to its importance, there have been a lot of literature survey and are established some experimental set-up to try profiting biodiesel using different feedstocks usually form the wastes. As it can be understandable, there are a lot of processes to reach the required quality of the biodiesel in order to be ready to use for operation in internal combustion engines. One of the reasons for this resistance is a certain lack of knowledge about the effect of biofuels on engine emissions. This paper presents environmental and economic benefits from the use of biodiesel, and the impact on the improvement of qualitative indicators of the amount of biodiesel added to fossil diesel. The purpose is to maintain constant engine performance, due to changes beginning with the influence of the quantity of fuel to power motor, fuel consumption and thermal efficiency. Which is the most important and what should be emphasized more in this scenario, it is fact that the comparisons between environment biodiesel emissions and fossil diesel. There are closely related come presence in the burning gases the following material such as nitric oxides and particulate matter, the latter not only in mass and composition, but also in size distributions.
