In this work, an experimental work was carried out to compare the performance of biodiesels made from non edible mahua oil and edible gingili oil in dual fuel engine. A single cylinder diesel engine was modified to work in dual fuel mode and liquefied petroleum gas was used as primary fuel. Biodiesel was prepared by transesterification process and mahua oil methyl ester (MOME) and gingili oil methyl ester (GOME) were used as pilot fuels. The viscosity of MOME is slightly higher than GOME. The dual fuel engine runs smoothly with MOME and GOME. The test results show that the performance of the MOME is close to GOME, at the pilot fuel quantity of 0.45 kg/h and at the advanced injection timing of 30 deg bTDC. Also it is observed that the smoke, carbon monoxide and unburnt hydro carbon emissions of GOME lower than the MOME. But the GOME results in slightly higher NOx emissions. From the experimental results it is concluded that the biodiesel made from mahua oil can be used as a substitute for diesel in dual fuel engine.

<p>Abstract: Biodiesel is renewable fuel sources that has the same properties with diesel fuel. It is<br />usually produced from transesterification of vegetable oil with alcohol. Transesterification can be<br />done by homogen or heterogen catalyst. ZnO-based heterogen catalyst can produce a high purity<br />biodiesel. The particle size is made into the nano size. Fe<br />2<br />O<br />3<br />was added to ZnO nanoparticle<br />matrix to make it easier to separate from the product. The purpose of this research was to obtain<br />catalytic and separation performance of nanocomposite ZnO/Fe<br />2<br />O<br />3<br />. After being activated, it was<br />mixed with methanol, stirred in reactor and heated until 65<br />C. At the same time, waste cooking<br />oil at 65<br />o<br />o<br />C was added to the reactor. Reaction was carried out for 3 hours at constant temperature<br />of 65<br />C. Then the product was separated. The top layer was methyl ester, and the bottom layer<br />was glycerol. The product and catalyst were separated by magnet. The separated catalyst was<br />collected as catalyst recovery. The glycerol was analyzed to determine the reaction convertion.<br />Methyl ester was analyzed using GC-MS method. The result showed that the catalyst recovery<br />decreased from 76,4% to 65,3% and the convertion from GC-MS was 66,11% for 6 hours.<br />o<br />Keywords: transesterification,nanocomposite ZnO/Fe<br />2<br />O<br />3<br />catalyst, catalyst recovery, reaction<br />convertion, GC-MS.</p>

:The population explosion in India is causing heavy consumption of energy resources. Most of the transportation sector is based on diesel as fuel. In this regard, it is high time for the search of renewable alternative fuels to reduce the dependency of oil imports. The usage of fossil fuels is also causing environment pollution. To minimize the pollution, an alternative to diesel is found to be non edible Mahua oil. In the present work, experiments were carried out on Mahua oil methyl ester (MOME) fuel and evaluated its performance at different injection pressures ranging from 190 to 220bar with the increment of 10 bar. The effect of blending of MOME with diesel at different injection pressures were studied experimentally to evaluate the brake thermal efficiency, brake specific energy consumption (BSEC), carbon monoxide (CO), and unburnt hydrocarbon (HC) emissions. It was observed from experimental results that 20% MOME (B20) have higher thermal efficiency at 190 bar compared with pure diesel and also HC and CO emissions were reduced.
