Calophyllum inophyllum (Punnai Seed Oil) derived biofuel blends: Thermal performance and engine emissions

An alternative renewable fuel resource must be identified to sustainably fulfill the expanding global energy demand. This study obtains a novel biofuel from the Punnai plant, and its physicochemical properties are evaluated against relevant standards. Conventional Diesel and Punnai oil diesel mixes...
