  INVESTIGATIONS ON BIODIESEL FROM WASTE COOKING OIL AS DIESEL FUEL SUBSTITUTE

  By Jagannath Balasaheb Hirkude, Atul S. Padalkar

  Abstract: The waste cooking oil (WCO) as alternative fuel for diesel engines is the aim of this investigation. The high viscosity and poor volatility are the major limitations of waste cooking oil for their utilization in diesel engine. The most convenient method to use waste cooking oil as fuel is to convert it into biodiesel through transesterfication. The properties of waste cooking oil methyl ester such as viscosity, specific gravity, calorific …
