Performance of various biofuel blends on burner system

Biofuel is known as a potential replacement of fossil fuel nowadays. In Malaysia, one of the simplest ways to produce Biodiesel is mainly by blending palm oil together with conventional diesel fuel (CDF). The performance study of the Biodiesel is essential in order to justify that Biodiesel is bett...
