What Is Biodiesel?
• Alternate fuel, • Transesterified product of vegetable oil or animal fat
Why Biodiesel ?
• Price hike of petro products• Depletion of fossil fuels
Advantages
• Used as a blend with commercial diesel• No Sulfur and Lead• Can be used in diesel engine without major modification

The second method of alkali base catalyzed transesterification process gave a yield of above 92%, with a catalyst concentration of 0.5% (weight %) of NaOH and 25 (volume %) of methanol at 65°C and
the fuel properties of bio-diesel produced from cotton oil sources match with diesel oil specifications as per the prescribed methods when compared with the latest American Standard Testing Methods.
The engine performance with the bio-diesel and the vegetable oil blends of various origins was similar to that of the neat diesel fuel with nearly the same brake thermal efficiency, showing higher specific fuel consumption and mechanical thermal efficiency for the high load.
Based on the above results, the cottonseed bio-diesel produced can be recommended for short term usage during acute shortages.
