Abstract: The modern world needs are increasing as the days are going so as to overcome the needs of the human beings science is improving day to day. Many researchers have worked successfully in generating energy from various alternate sources, including solar and biological sources such as conversion of energy from sunlight to electricity and conversion of some renewable agricultural substances into fuel. This work considers the Trans esterification of sesame oil and to measure the viscosity, flash point, fire point, density and gross calorific value of the pure sesame oil after Tran’s esterification. Then mixing of blends with diesel taking three samples SB10 (10% sesame oil+90% diesel) and SB20 %( 20%sesame oil+80% diesel) and SB40 %( 40%sesame oil+60% diesel). Choosing SB10 and SB20 as beset by result obtaining by performing emissions and performance test on biodiesel blends. But the SB40 gives low performance and higher emissions. Now adding additive to SB40 for better results and comparing the experimental values of biodiesel blends SB40+5% Ethyl Hexyl Nitrate with diesel.
Keywords: Biodiesel, Ethyl Hexyl Nitrate, Fossil Fuel, Sesame oil.
