Öğe An analysis of biodiesel requirement, production and policies in Turkey(e-Journal of New World Sciences Academy, 2008-02-01) Aydın, Hüseyin; Bayındır, HasanThe development of alternative fuels from renewable resources, like biomass, has gained considerable attention in recent years. A biodiesel program would give many benefits in terms of generation of employment for poor/rural people, farmers, accelerate of starting many type of industries for developing countries like Turkey. This paper investigates current status of biodiesel in Turkey, advantages and disadvantages of biodiesel in diesel engines, annual diesel fuel consumption, import and export ratings and annual diesel fuel demand. The main focus of this paper is on Turkey’s current fuel status and to clarify Turkey’s biodiesel demand as alternative to fossil diesel fuel. Results show that Turkey is highly in need of alternative energies such as bio-fuels. That’s way it is recommended that Turkey should promote oilseed crops farming to the rise production of biodiesel.Öğe Determination of performance and exhaust emissions properties of B75 in a CI engine application(Journals & Books, 2011-09) Aydın, Hüseyin; İlkılıç, CumaliIn this study, performance and exhaust emissions of biodiesel in a compression ignition engine was experimentally investigated. Therefore, biodiesel has been made by transesterification from cotton seed oil and then it was mixed with diesel fuel by 25% volumetrically, called here as B75 fuel. B75 fuel was tested, as alternative fuel, in a single cylinder, four strokes, and air-cooled diesel engine. The effect of B75 and diesel fuels on the engine power, engine torque and break specific fuel consumption were clarified by the performance tests. The influences of B75 fuel on CO, HC, NOx, Smoke opacity, CO2, and O2 emissions were investigated by emission tests. The engine torque and power, for B75 fuel, were lower than that of diesel fuel in range of 2–3%. However, for the B75, specific fuel consumption was higher than that of diesel fuel by approximately 3%. CO2, CO, HC, smoke opacity and NOx emissions of B75 fuel were lower than that of diesel fuel. The experimental results showed that B75 fuel can be substituted for the diesel fuel without any modifications in diesel engines.Öğe Terebinth oil for biodiesel production and its diesel engine application(Journals & Books, 2015-08) Aydın, Hüseyin; İlkılıç, Cumali; Çılğın, ErdalIn this study, biodiesel was produced from terebinth oil by the well known transesterification process in the methyl alcohol environment. Terebinth is non-edible oil, thus food versus fuel conflict will not arise if this is used for biodiesel production. The optimum conditions of transesterification process for biodiesel production are investigated in this study. A maximum of 77% biodiesel was produced with 20% methanol in presence of 1% sulphuric acid (H2SO4). The resulting biodiesel is quite similar to conventional diesel fuel in its main characteristics. The obtained biodiesel from terebinth oil was added to diesel fuel volumetrically by 10% and 50%. The fuel mixtures that obtained from the addition of 10% and 50% of biodiesel were named here as B10 fuel and B50 fuel. Performance and exhaust emissions of biodiesel in a compression ignition engine were experimentally investigated. Biodiesel blends have lowered power output with increased brake specific fuel consumption (Bsfc) probably due to the lower heating value of biodiesel. The engine experimental results showed that exhaust emissions including carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and hydrocarbons (HC) were reduced for all biodiesel fuel mixtures. However, a slight increase in oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emission was experienced for biodiesel mixtures.
