Increase of Performance and Smoke Emission by Increasing ERG Rate in IDI Diesel Engine Using Jatropha Oil and Diesel Fuel Blends [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recently, a study of biodiesel fuel use as a substitute of diesel fuel becomes an interesting topic due to critical fossil fuel availability. The use of biodiesel fuel directly into diesel engine without the change of fuel injector parameter causes the ...

Performance and emissions of an agricultural diesel engine fuelled with different diesel and methyl ester blends [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper shows the results of an investigation carried out to assess the application of different fuels produced by blending diesel fuel with methyl ester obtained from mixture of 75% (v/v) sunflower oil and 25% (v/v) used cooking oil on a Kubota ...

Development of a Novel Superhydrophobic Sawdust–Perspex Composite Disc for Efficient Oil–Water Separation

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water pollution by oil and organic substances causes serious problems that threaten the ecosystem. Superhydrophobic materials represent an effective solution for removing oil from water. The present paper investigates the development of a low‐cost, superhydrophobic composite for oil–water separation.

Exposure to Occupational Inhalants and the Risk of Developing Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by joint pain, swelling, and stiffness. Although smoking is a well‐established risk factor for RA, the role of occupational inhalants in RA development is less well recognized.

Effect of waste cooking-oil biodiesel on performance and exhaust emissions of a diesel engine

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Petroleum, 2018
The ever increase in global energy demand, consumption of depletable fossil fuels, exhaust emissions and global warming, all these led to search about alternative fuels. Biodiesel was produced from waste cooking-oil by transesterification process. Blends

Effective pretreatment of wet microalgal biomass to enhance lipid extraction in biodiesel production

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiesel is a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Identifying and evaluating nonedible sources is essential to address ecological concerns and meet energy demands. Microalgae are effective for lipid production but their rigid cell walls hinder bioproduct release making the process energy‐intensive and costly.

Techno‐economic and environmental assessment of a hybrid renewable energy system for a date molasses factory in Iraq using HOMER Pro

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Iraq currently faces a significant electricity deficit estimated at approximately 18 000 MW, resulting in frequent and sometimes prolonged power outages that disrupt both economic activities and social life. The widening gap between energy supply and demand, combined with environmental concerns associated with fossil fuel consumption ...

Effective acetalization of furfural catalyzed by Fe‐ and Co‐oxalates: impact of alcohols structure on products composition

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Fe‐, Co‐, and FeCo‐oxalates supported on silica gel (5 wt% metal load) were synthesized, characterized, and tested for the first time in solvent‐free furfural (FF) acetalization with C1–C8 alcohols at 70–170 °C under both conventional and microwave (MW)‐assisted conditions. The interaction of FF with linear C1–C4 alcohols yielded pincer‐shaped
