About This Presentation

Biodiesel can also be used as a heating fuel in domestic and commercial boilers, a mix of heating oil and biofuel which is standardized and taxed slightly differently from diesel fuel used for transportation. Bioheat fuel is a proprietary blend of biodiesel and traditional heating oil.

Slide Content

Biodiesel PRESENTED BY AGLAIA

Introduction Biodiesel can be operated in any diesel engine with little or no impact to the fuel system. Biodiesel has a solvent effect which may release deposits accumulated on tank walls and pipes from previous diesel fuel storage. The release of deposits may clog filters. Biodiesel can be used as a pure fuel or blended with petroleum in any ratio.

What is Biodiesel? Alternative fuel for diesel engines Made from vegetable oil or animal fat Meets health effect testing (CAA) Lower emissions, High flash point (>300F), Safer Biodegradable, Essentially non-toxic. Chemically, biodiesel molecules are mono-alkyl esters produced usually from triglyceride esters Fatty Acid Alcohol Glycerin Vegetable Oil Biodiesel FA FA FA FA

Biodiesel Samples

Biodiesel can be used in existing Diesel Engines Pure Biodiesel (B100) or blended with petroleum diesel (B20, BXX). Rudolf Diesel: peanut oil. Little or no engine modifications Use existing fuel distribution network. Available now

Benefits of Biodiesel - High cetane number (average 45,8-56,9 units) - High flash point (above +100) - Good lubricating property - Absence of sulfur and aromatic hydrocarbons - Low toxicity of emissions - Virtually complete biodegradability (99% biodiesel are destroyed in water or soil for 28 days ) - Zero balance of greenhouse gases 6

Environmental Issues Burning fossil fuels increases atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide Fossil fuels are a finite resource 30% Increase Graph taken from USF Oceanography webpage

Problems brought by Biodiesel Certain biodiesel gels easily under cold temperature Deforestation for plantation Degrades rubber in old cars Synthetic rubbers that are resistant

Biodiesel Challenges Cold Weather Operation (Chemistry) Producing enough feedstock oil to replace a large portion of petroleum (biology, chemistry, physics, economics) Engine and emissions optimization (chemistry, physics)

The Future of Biodiesel Should be considered for use as an alternative and not a primary fuel. Short and long term environmental benefits will be worthwhile. Storage Issues with Stability and Transportation issues with high cost of delivered fuel compared to fossil fuels. Fuel-supply reliability Lack of understanding of environmental impact - NOx emissions Complexity of biomass-power infrastructure compared to known well established coal and natural gas markets

C onclusion Biodiesel is eco-friendly. Biodiesel is clean burning alternative fuel. Biodiesel contain no petroleum, but can be blended with conventional diesel fuel. These fuel can be used in any diesel engine without any modification. Biodiesel is degradable , non toxic and free from sulphur and lead.
