Growing environmental awareness and increase in fuel prices, it has become the need of the hour to consider alternate energy and fuel source. Biodiesel fuel is the alternative which is becoming more and more popular today, because bio-diesel is a cleaner burning diesel fuel, made from 100% natural, 100% renewable resources. It can mix with mineral oil and used in standard diesel engine with minor or modifications. The present study covers the various aspects of biodiesels fuel derived from crude lemongrass and tamarind seed oils and ignition improver 20ml showed best performances increase in brake thermal efficiency, decrease in BSFC (Break Specific Fuel Consumption) and reductions in emissions CO and HC. The engine performance and emissions has justified the potentiality of the lemongrass and tamarind seed oils as alternative fuel for compression ignition engine fuel.
