Meeting the growing energy demand for sustainability and environmental friendly fuels is a continuous process. Several oxygenated were tried tested according to availability depending upon geographical locations find solution against rapidly depleting fossil (gasoline diesel). In present investigation, viability of waste fry cooking oil converted into biodiesel fuel its various physiocochemical...

It is necessary to meet increasingly stringent emission standards of IC engines, reducing the values. While improving engine parameters and combustion chamber geometries can reduce emissions, also research continues for alternative fuels. Diesel production from waste cooking oils has advantages in terms recycling, environment, cost. Waste be used as fuel with minor modifications. oil-based biod...

aIn the present study a 4-stroke 5hp diesel engine was tested with Diesel oil plus cottonseed oil blends. The blends in different proportions (10 to 50 percent by volume) were tested at constant speed of 1500 rpm. The said engine is operated at different loads and characteristics like Brake power, Brake thermal efficiency, specific fuel consumption etc. Engine performance for blends resulted in...

Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system is considered as a promising technology for energy recovery from the waste heat rejected by internal combustion (IC) engines. However, such waste heat is normally contained in both coolant and exhaust gases at quite different temperatures. A single ORC system is usually unable to efficiently recover energy from both of these waste heat sources. A dual loop ORC...

This paper presents a case study based on a LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) research program of the silicon foundry sand (SFS) due to the large quantity of produced waste foundry sand (WFS). The foundry waste is a high priority sector within the growing European foundry industry. It is necessary to understand the full life cycle of the foundry waste in order to correctly identify magnitude and type...
