Abstract

In this review paper, we would like to review the use of sesame oil as biodiesel. The main problem behind not using sesame as a fuel is because of high viscosity there occurs problems with atomization and self-ignition does not takes place. But still with the help of transesterification we can reduce the viscosity of sesame oil; as well blending with diesel can also help in reducing the viscosity. Sesame oil when blended with diesel in various proportions can reduce the viscosity. Ultimately blended sesame oil is used in single cylinder diesel engine and showing its performance and emission characteristics.
