Abstract
The biooil is thermally cracked under catalytic environment in a catalytic
cracking process. This process is able to replace the transesterification
process to match the biofuel properties with diesel. In this study the
silicon dioxide and cerium oxide were chosen as catalyst for cracking the
jatropha vegetable oil. The catalytically cracked jatropha biofuel gas is
delivered at constant rate to the inlet manifold of the diesel engine.
Before and after cracking, the characteristics of the catalysts were
analyzed using scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. The
condensed cracked jatropha biofuel properties were analyzed with the results
of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and
differential scanning calorimetry analysis, and it matches with the diesel
fuel. From the experimental results, the increase in brake thermal
efficiency of the engine with higher oxides of nitrogen emission was
observed compared with diesel for both the catalytically cracked jatropha
biofuels. Notably, SiO2 as catalyst showed the better mixing towards
homogeneity with higher performance and emission results than the CeO2 as
catalyst.
