Impact of Nanoadditives on the Performance and Combustion Characteristics of Neat Jatropha Biodiesel
Jatropha biodiesel was produced from neat jatropha oil using both esterification and transesterification processes. The free fatty acid value content of neat jatropha oil was reduced to approximately 2% from 12% through esterification. Aluminium oxide (Al2O3) and cerium oxide (CeO2) nanoparticles we...
