Article
The rapid depletion of fossil fuels and the increasing levels of exhaust gas emissions have paved the way for researchers to focus their attention on alternative fuels. One such potential alternative source of fuel is biodiesel. In the light of the search for newer fuels, the present work focuses on Vateria Indica biodiesel that is found widely in...
Conference Paper
Renewable fuel such as Biodiesel has become more interesting fuel due to rising expenses of standard fossil fuels, to meet growing energy demand and an alternative to reducing oil reserves. In the compression ignition engine, biodiesel proves to be an alternative feasible option for gasoline, biodiesel burns like crude oil fuel and has controlled p...
Conference Paper
The precision machine structures necessitate light weight and high vibration damping structures for better finish in the wok done. Research is going on to find the alternate material to the existing Cast Iron conventional material as it is observed to be denser and also damping of vibration is lesser. Granite particulate epoxy composite is one such...

Vateria Indica is a multipurpose tree that is much used locally in India. It provides food, medicine and a range of other commodities. It is often planted along avenues in India. The use of vegetable oil as feedstock for biodiesel production is divisive as an outcome of the challenges of a food-fuel catastrophe linked with the use of fit to be eate...

Conference Paper
In the present study the effect of compression ratio on the performance and emission characteristics of a blend of Vateria Indica Oil Methyl Ester and neat diesel has been investigated. The oil has been extracted from the Vateria Indica seeds by Solvent method. The extracted oil has been subjected to a two step transesterification process for obtai...

In the present study, Lard oil methyl ester (LOME) has been extracted from pig fats by base-catalyzed transesterification with methanol in the presence of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as catalyst. The effect of LOME addition to pure diesel on the performance and emission characteristics of direct injection diesel engine has been experimentally investiga...

Conference Paper
This study is carried out to investigate the performance and emission characteristics of a single cylinder, four stroke diesel engine using B20 methyl ester of rice bran oil blend with dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as fuel additive. In the present work biodiesel is prepared using esterification process from Rice bran oil (RBO). The B20 blend is prepared...
