The research in searching of new feedstock and biodiesel has mainly been focused on economical use and increasing blend proportion, and its impact analysis and optimization for the last one and half decades. But recent researches and their findings approaches to favor on understanding and popularization for biodiesel. In the present work, literatures were cited from years 2010 to 2019, and reviewed production and sale of automobile also energy scenario of India, biodiesel performance on an engine, fuel supply system components and oxidation stability. It was found that negative or no change, majority of them reported the reduction in HC, CO, CO2 and NOx emission with use of biodiesel, but simultaneously higher fuel consumption, exhaust gas temperature, lower heat release rate and power from available literature. The wear rate and injector clogging and fuel filter plugging problems are also reported in the favor of use of biodiesel.

Abstract


The research in searching of new feedstock and biodiesel has mainly been focused on economical use and increasing blend proportion, and its impact analysis and optimization for the last one and half decades. But recent researches and their findings approaches to favor on understanding and popularization for biodiesel. In the present work, literatures were cited from years 2010 to 2019, and reviewed production and sale of automobile also energy scenario of India, biodiesel performance on an engine, fuel supply system components and oxidation stability. It was found that negative or no change, majority of them reported the reduction in HC, CO, CO2 and NOx emission with use of biodiesel, but simultaneously higher fuel consumption, exhaust gas temperature, lower heat release rate and power from available literature. The wear rate and injector clogging and fuel filter plugging problems are also reported in the favor of use of biodiesel.
