Calibration Method for the Determination of the FAME and HVO Contents in Fossil Diesel Blends Using NIR Spectroscopy
(MPDI, 2021-05-07)
- article
The European diesel fuel standard, EN590, allows a 7% (V/V) biodiesel (FAME) addition to automotive diesel fuel. The allowed addition of renewable diesel (HVO) to fossil diesel is not defined, as long as the properties of ...
Performance and emissions of a medium-speed engine driven with sustainable options of liquid fuels
(SAE International, 2020-09-15)
- article
Energy production and transport are major global contributors of greenhouse gas emissions. Both sectors should reduce their use of fossil energy sources. Pollutant emissions must also be reduced without jeopardizing energy ...
Storage stability of rapeseed methyl ester stored in a sealed barrel for seven year
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2021)
- article
Storage stability is one of the main quality parameters related to fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) biofuels. The deterioration of biofuels´ properties during storage is a more serious issue than with conventional fuels. ...
Performance and emissions of a non-road diesel engine driven with a blend of renewable naphtha and diesel fuel oil
(Technische Akademie Esslingen, 2019)
- conferenceObject
Diesel engines are still the predominant power source in heavy-duty vehicle, non-road, marine and power generation applications globally. They are reliable stand-alone machines with a high brake thermal efficiency (BTE) ...
Selected Fuel Properties of Alcohol and Rapeseed Oil Blends
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International (MDPI), 2020-07-25)
- article
The alcohols ethanol and 1-butanol are interesting options as blending components for renewable fuels. We studied whether it is possible to mix these alcohols with a little refined material, rapeseed oil, to obtain stable ...
Effects of sulphur on the storage stability of the bio and fossil fuel blends
(Estonian Agricultural University, Faculty of Agronomy, 2017)
- article
In this study, the aim was to find out if mixing two common fuels together could be beneficial for both the environment and storage stability of fuel. It is obvious, that adding biodiesel to fossil fuel will decrease its ...
Effects of alternative marine diesel fuels on the exhaust particle size distributions of an off-road diesel engine
(Elsevier, 2019-03-05)
- article
The main objective of this study was to find out how alternative fuels affect the exhaust gas particle size distribution. The fuels are later intended for marine applications. Along with low-sulfur marine light fuel oil ...
Behavior of B20 fuels in arctic conditions
(Estonian Agricultural University, Faculty of Agronomy, 2019)
- article
Several renewable and sustainable liquid fuel alternatives are needed for different compression-ignition (CI) engine applications to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and to ensure proper primary energy sources for the ...
Exhaust particle number of a non-road diesel engine fuelled by methyl esters with different fatty acid compositions
(Estonian Agricultural University, Faculty of Agronomy, 2019)
- article
The main aim of this study was to find out how methyl esters with different fatty acid compositions affect the exhaust particle numbers. Along with fossil diesel fuel oil (DFO) and renewable diesel (HVO), a high-speed ...
Kinematic viscosity studies for medium-speed CI engine fuel blends
(Estonian Agricultural University, Faculty of Agronomy, 2018)
- article
Engine - driven power plants, run by diesel fuel or gas, will be needed for peaking power to keep the electricity grids stable when the production of renewable electricity, e.g. utilizing wind or solar power, is increased. ...
