Production of Alternative Diesel Fuel from Waste Oils and Comparison with Fresh Diesel:-A Review

--------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT-------------------------------------------------Due to depletion of fossil fuel reserves and increasing cost of the petroleum products are the big troubles of today's world .from past to present, tendency of oil price have increased consecutively. Especially, India has deficient amount of fossil fuel .for this reason, India has to import fossil fuel, such as petroleum for domestic demand. In this review our main focus is on finding alternative fuel resources and utilizing them to eliminate their negative effects, become of the limitation of petroleum products.In this context, waste oils are currently receiving renewed interest. The properties of the oils derived from waste plastic pyrolysis oil, used engine oil and waste tire oil were analysed and compared with the petroleum products and found that it has properties similar to that of diesel. This paper gives a brief review about using waste oils of these three types of oils as a fuel for diesel engines. The production processes of each type of waste oils are presented. The results obtained in the comparison of waste purifying oil properties with fresh diesel are discussed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Date of Submission: 02 April 2014 Date of Publication: 15 April 2014 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
