Abstract

Sustainable development is a key aspect of modern-day development. Reducing fuel cost and emissions is considered as the most important research area in sustainable development. Biodiesel has the potential to reduce the requirement of petroleum diesel if blended in suitable proportion. Various feedstocks are being explored for biodiesel production. Oils derived from neem and jatropha can be utilized for biodiesel production. In the current investigation, optimum parameters for the production, namely catalyst proportion, temperature, and oil-to-alcohol ratio were optimized. Experiments were carried out at different blend proportions to study fuel properties, namely kinematic viscosity, aniline point, diesel index, flash and fire points, specific and API gravity, cetane number, and ASTM distillation characteristics.
