Abstract Continuous demand for energy in order to provide to an ever-increasing global population calls for use of or integration of other alternative sources of fuel other than fossil fuels. Many countries all over the world use vegetable oils blended with neat diesel as alternative and using these biofuels can help alleviate lessen the emissions releases on the environment as well as the country’s dependency on fossil fuels. In the Philippines Coconut Methyl Ester (CME) is the primary vegetable oil used, however in this study we used four other vegetable oils which are RCO (Refined Corn Oil), RPO (Refine Palm Oil), JFO (Jahtropa Filtered Oil) and JME (Jathropa Methyl Ester) in order to investigate the possibility of their use in diesel engines. A 6.3 kW single-cylinder, four stroke cycle, direct injection engine was used for the study. This kind of engine is typically used in the Philippines for different purposes such as backup power for households, for boats, pumps and for agriculture use. The specific fuel consumption of the biodiesel blends compared to neat diesel fuel ranged from −15% to 15% with RCO and JME having higher SFC and JFO and RPO having lower SFC. Fuel conversion efficiency of the varied from −12% to 12% with JFO and RPO having higher efficiency and RCO and JME having lower efficiency. The power of the varied from −7% to 6% with RPO having lower power output, JFO having higher power output and JME and RCO having similar power output to neat diesel fuel. At full load condasition Neat Diesel Fuel blended with 15% Refined Palm Oil showed the greatest improvement in SFC while Neat Diesel Fuel blended with 10% Jathropa Filtered Oil showed the best power output.

Palm oil methyl ester (PME) is a form of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) which in principle is biodiesel. Malaysia could greatly leverage the abundance of PME sources given its status as a palm oil-producing country. In this paper, palm oil is evaluated for its potential as a biofuel feedstock and its derivatives’ vast use in the domestic market but limited use in other regions. In order to create a growth market of PME, Malaysia has introduced an increase of PME blend component in its nation’s biodiesel use for transport and industrial sectors. A phased increase from 5% to the latest of 20% PME blend in biodiesel certainly has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while creating a boost to the local market. However, the government must be careful in managing subsidies of conventional petroleum-based diesel fuel, as this would have an eventual effect on the supply chain of biodiesel in Malaysia. There are limited studies on diesel fuel physicochemical characteristics that are used as base-stock for the biodiesel blend and whether it could be manipulated to maximise yield while maintaining conformance to mandated fuel standards. Multiple relevant research papers were studied of its relevance to PME use as biodiesel FAME to meet high blending rates in Malaysia.

Palm oil methyl ester (POME) produced from crude palm oil have some excellent properties which makes it a feasible alternative to diesel fuel. However, its higher oxygen content makes it nitrogen oxide emission prone when burned in diesel engines. This problem can be resolved by emulsifying POME with distilled water in the presence of suitable surfactant. Two phase water in oil emulsion is prepared by using ultrasonic bath sonication. SPAN 80, a lipophilic surfactant is used for 1% by volume to prepare the emulsion. Water quantity in the emulsion is varied by 5% and 10% by volume and stability study is performed. It is found that emulsion with 5% water is more stable. Thereafter, POME emulsion samples are prepared with 5% water and tested in a variable compression ratio diesel engine. The performance and emission characteristics are investigated for a set of loads and compression ratios (CR). The experimental observations show that 5% water in POME produce 3.5% lower brake thermal efficiency and 11% higher brake specific fuel consumption as compared to baseline diesel. Furthermore, the exhaust gas temperature and other emissions like oxides of carbon, oxides of nitrogen and hydrocarbon for the emulsified POME are found to be lower than the baseline diesel.

The main aim of the present study was to improve the oxidation stability and cold flow properties of biodiesel produced from waste frying/cooking oil and palm oil. In this work, waste frying/cooking methyl ester (WFME) and palm methyl ester (PME) were prepared using an alkali-catalyzed transesterification process, and the physicochemical properties of the pure biodiesel as well as of binary blends among them were investigated. The results indicated that palm biodiesel and WFME18, produced from a mixture of frying, cooking, sunflower, and corn oils, can be used as antioxidant additives, enhancing biodiesel stability. Additionally, it was found that WFME1 and WFME12 derived from waste residential canola oil can be used as cold flow improvers for enhancing the cold flow properties of palm biodiesel. Moreover, ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel winter (ULSDFW), ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel summer (ULSDFS), kerosene (KF), and benzene (BF) were utilized to enhance the cold flow properties of the samples and meet the requirements of diesel fuel standards. The investigation of the experimental results indicated that blending WFME-PM with a low proportion of petroleum-based fuel (KF and BF) could significantly improve the cold flow properties (CP and PP) as well as oxidation stability of WFME.
