| description | Limited supply of petroleum resources, global warming issues and increasing yearly prices of petroleum in the present time, motivated human to search for new alternative of energy sources. Utilization of edible oil like vegetable oils as fuel actualized the competition between human needed in food consuming and desired in life. Consequently, this study intended to investigate the feasibility of utilization of non-edible oil as new renewable sources of energy to reduce the depended on fossil fuels. The study examined the aspects of the properties and engine performances of Sea Mango (Cerbera Odollam) seeds oil which blended with various percentage of Malaysian petroleum diesel fuel. In Malaysia, Sea Mango trees were planted as decorated tree along the roadside and around housing areas. It shows the potential of 40-60 % of extracted oil from dried seeds through solvent extraction technique. Engine performances will be presented with various blends of diesel fuel. At the end of the study, the some fuel characteristic will be compared to diesel fuel and its feasibility as new source of energy will be discussed. |
