| description | An important energy source for industry and transportation is diesel fuel. Nonetheless, the use of diesel fuel has been connected to a number of environmental problems, such as climate change and air pollution. The purpose of this data set research is to extract oil from castor seeds and cottonseeds using a mechanical press method to use as lubricant. The oil is refined to remove impurities and improve its quality once it is extracted. The next step was determining the fatty acid content of castor oil, cottonseed oil, and cottonseed oil (50%) mixed with castor seed oil (50%) using gas chromatography (Agilent 7890B) with a mass spectroscopy detector (Agilent 5977A MSD, USA) and the European standard (EN 14103:2011). There were thirteen (13) significant methyl esters of fatty acids found. Furthermore, to make sure they met the specifications needed for dependable engine operation, the reference diesel and the diesel fuel with 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, and 1% bio additives (mixed cottonseed oil, 50%; and caster seed oil, 50%) were characterized. It was subsequently determined that the physicochemical properties, including density, kinematic viscosity, calorific value, and total sulfur, complied with stated ASTM requirements. The results of the investigation showed that the fatty acid profile of combined cotton and caster has the advantage of both oils' quality, with all of its physicochemical properties falling within the ASTM recommendations for diesel fuel. In order to improve lubricity in diesel engines, 50% of caster seed oil and 50% of mixed cottonseed oil were used as bio-additives. |
