In this investigation is to extract the
biodiesel from waste cooking oil through transesterification and to assess the
performance and emission characteristics of the diesel engine. In this present
work, waste cooking oil methyl ester is extracted and blends with diesel to test
for different varying load conditions in low heat rejection (LHR) with and
without ceramic Al2TiO5 coating on piston, cylinder head
and liner. Likewise, various parameters also tested such as brake thermal
efficiency (BTH), brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), emission of hydro
carbons, oxides of nitrogen gases, and carbon monoxides. These tests are
carried out with 3 different blends B10, B20, &B30 at different load
conditions. Finally, the result shows that the performance of diesel engine
with biodiesel was satisfactory increased when compared with diesel.
