A study on waste transformer oil blended with BD IC engine application

Abstract The work examines the study on waste transformer oil as a novel based alternate BD for compression engine. For this purpose different properties of waste transformer oil were determined. To analysis various combustion and emission waste transformer oil are used as the alternate fuel in IC engine. The investigation includes three parts. In the first part of the work transesterification process were conducted. In the next, the refined waste transformer oil is designated in as BD. In the third part of work, different blends like BD100, B10, B20, B30, B40 and D100 is tested in a single cylinder engine to evaluate performance and emission. At the last it concluded that B30 is best among all the blends can be used as an alternate fuel in diesel engine.
