Vegetable oil can be used as fuel. Biodiesel is a new type of fuel produced from the processing of renewable vegetable oils such as rapeseed.
Biodiesel crops fall into three categories: herbaceous plants, woody oilseed tree species, and aquatic oilseeds. Common oilseed crops mainly include rapeseed, soybean, peanut, cottonseed, flax, etc. Among them, rapeseed is the most widely used in the world. Common woody oil plants include palm tree, light bark tree, jatropha, camellia oleifera, coconut palm, etc. Aquatic oilseed plants mainly refer to oilseed algae.
Detailed information:
Diesel molecules are made up of approximately 15 carbon chains , according to research has discovered thatVegetable oil molecules are typically composed of 14 to 18 carbon chains, which is similar to the number of carbon atoms in diesel molecules.
The first generation of biomass energy mainly generates electricity or heat through the combustion of biomass waste or biogas produced by biological fermentation. The second generation of biomass energy builds on the first generation, consciously planting energy crops and transforming them into liquid fuels. The most commonly used at present are biodiesel and ethanol gasoline.
Biodiesel is better than diesel in various performance comparisons, and it can also lubricate and protect the engine. The only drawback is that its calorific value is relatively low, but this defect has practically no impact on engine performance.
