Economical Speed Test on a 4-Stroke Single-Cylinder Diesel Engine Running on Diesel Mixed with Chicken Waste Oil
Main Article Content
Abstract
Biodiesel is an option to diesel fuel that is better for the environment. It is made of alkyl esters that come from fatty acids. Biodiesel can be made from vegetable oils that are safe to eat, vegetable oils that are not safe to eat, animal fats, and used food oils. No motor changes are required to utilize biodiesel instead of oil-based diesel. Biodiesel can be blended in with oil-based diesel in any extent. This study focuses on the process of extracting oil from chicken faeces for preparing purposes. The removal of triglycerides is achieved by the transesterification process. The extracted oil properties like density, viscosity calorific value etc. were found in the college laboratory and the oil is used to blend in pure diesel in 5% and 10% by volume. The mixed fuels alongside unadulterated diesel are used to test to anticipate execution and practical speed on a solitary chamber diesel motor. The result shows that the chicken waste oil mix improves the productivity and better conservative speed.
