Performance and Emission Characteristics of a Diesel Engine Fueled with Fish-Oil Biodiesel

The purpose of this study is to experimentally analyse the performance and the exhaust emissions of a diesel engine operating on fish oil-biodiesel blended fuels. The fish oil was separated from fish wastes with the help of the designed oil extraction machine. Biodiesel fuel was then produced from t...
