There is an increasing interest in India to search for suitable alternative fuels that are environmental friendly. Environmental concerns and limited amount of petroleum resources have caused interests in the development of alternative fuels for internal combustion (IC) Engines. As an alternative, biodegradable, renewable and sulphur free biodiesel is receiving increasing attention. The use of biodiesel is rapidly expanding around the world, making it imperative to fully understand the impacts of biodiesel on the diesel engine combustion process and pollutant formation. Biodiesel is known as the mono-alkyl-esters of long chain fatty acids derived from renewable feedstock, such as, vegetable oils or animal’s fats, for use in compression ignition engines. Therefore, in this study, different parameters for the optimization of biodiesel production were investigated in the first phase, while in the next phase of the study performance test of a diesel engine with neat diesel fuel and biodiesel mixtures was carried
