Abstract

Now a days alternative source of energy are given importance due to gradual depletion of fossil fuels reserves. The use of vegetable oils in CI engine results in low CO and HC emissions compared to conventional diesel fuel. The present study covers the preparation of biodiesel from honne oil by converting to honne oil methyl esters (HOME) by transesterification process. The properties of biodiesel is compared with diesel. From the comparison of properties, it is inferred that the biodiesel prepared can be used as alternative fuel for CI engine without any engine modification. The findings of the present research work infer that the biodiesel obtained from honne oil is a promising alternative fuel for direct-injection four-stroke CI engine.
