Abstract

Biodiesel can serve as an alternative to petroleum-based fuels. It has been shown that standard biodiesel cannot be mixed to improve efficiency and emissions characteristics. It has a major effect on emissions but has a limited capacity to mix with co-feed at varying temperatures and different ratios. In this study, 63 tertiary blends and three binary blends were mixed to create a stable fuel. Biodiesel was stable after having blended with amphipathioic liquor of a broad range of compatibility for a period of 168 h is recorded. Four samples were chosen for reproducibility, and 2 were selected for higher than average ethanol content in ethanol. These can be defined as one-observed, inferred, and derived in the three-layer, double-blurred, double-layer, two-blurred, one-blurred ring formation, and a single-blurred double-layer format. Even at 27.2 °C, biodiesel micelles could not shape micelles were used. The fuel blend, which has a wider range of miscibility, suitable for transportation and stability, causes more aromatic emissions when used in a ternary formulation than a micro formulation. The blend properties were found to be within tolerable limits.
