Abstract |
|
The biodiesel is an alternative diesel fuel that can be produced from renewable feed stock such as vegetable oil waste fry oil and animal fat, however due to technical deficiency they are rarely used purely or with high percentage in unmodified diesel engine. Waste coffee powder is used as to produce bio diesel. The oil is extracted from waste coffee powder using solvent extraction method and production of bio diesel is carried out by transesterification method. Various thermal properties such as Specific gravity, Flash point, Fire point, Viscosity, Calorific value were tested by blinding of bio fuel with diesel in different proportion. To test the produced biodiesel and its blends in a Diesel engine. The brake thermal efficiency and Brake specific fuel consumption of B20 almost matches with petro diesel and Emission of CO and CO2 was considerably reduced as the load increased for biodiesel blends compared to petro diesel, the 20 % blend gives better performance and also it is eco-friendly. |
