| Abstract: | Results of performance, emission and tribological evaluations of palm oil methyl ester and its blends with conventional diesel
in an automobile diesel engine test bed are presented. Polymerization and carbon deposits on the fuel injector were monitored.
CO, CO2, O2, combustion efficiency and temperature of exhaust gases were also measured. Palm oil methyl ester and its blends have great
potential as alternative diesel fuel. Performance and exhaust gas emission for palm oil methyl ester and its blends with conventional
diesel are comparable with those of conventional diesel fuel. Palm oil methyl ester does not pose a severe environmental problem
and will not deteriorate engine and bearing components. |
