Biodiesel fuels methyl ester cetane number

Biodiesel methyl esters blend quite easily into petroleum based conventional diesel fuel. Biodiesel esters typically have better lubricity properties and higher cetane number ratings than conventional diesel fuel, but have poorer water demulsibility and color stability properties. At sub-zero temperatures, the handling characteristics of biodiesel becomes more difficult to control than conventional diesel fuel. [Pg.304]

Biodiesel. Biodiesel appears as one of the attractive renewable energy sources. It refers to all biofuels of similar cetane number as that of diesel. Most commonly used biodiesel consists of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME), with physical characteristics close to fossil fuel. FAMEs are usually prepared by... [Pg.2102]
