Abstract

Cotton seed oil, in its pure form persists some problematic properties which make it impossible to be used as a fuel in the conventional IC engines. Thus, after extraction of the oil, it is Trans-esterified to extract the fatty acids and other unwanted components from the oil. After Trans-esterification, the oil is ready in the form of Bio diesel to be used in the Engine. This Bio diesel, in specific blend with the Conventional diesel, to be tested in the Convention Diesel IC Engine. The testing includes engine performance evaluation and emission testing from zero to full load conditions, step by step. Along with the testing, deep study of the manufacturing process, costing for production of Bio diesel and commercial analysis of usage of biodiesel with respect to its effects on engine performance, specific fuel consumption and emission analysis.
