A review on prediction of properties of biodiesel and blends of biodiesel

摘要

The continuous increasing demand for energy and the decreasing petroleum resources has led to the search for alternative fuel which is renewable and sustainable. The quality and efficiency of Biodiesel fuel was found to be more significant than petro diesel. For predicting the properties of Biodiesel, various models were developed using various feed oils and blends, the quality of Biodiesel depends on the type of feed oils. The %ARD values were proposed, which vary with composition of feed oils for a given model in comparison between predicted and experimental data. There is a huge scope in the devalopment of accurate models to nredict the nronerries of Biodiesel and more importantly their blends as they are
