Abstract: Present work focuses on performance and emission characterises of lard oil blended biodiesel. Biodiesels were prepared through Lard Oil Methyl Ester (LOME) by trans-esterification process. Two blends of biodiesel B10 and B20 were prepared and parameters such as brake thermal efficiency, brake specific fuel consumption, hydrocarbon emission, carbon mono oxide emission, oxides of nitrogen against the load were studied according to standard test procedure. This article provides an overview on selection of optimum blending of lard oil to the diesel.
Keywords: Lard oil, Biodiesel, Trans-esterification, Free Fatty Acid, Brake thermal efficiency, Smoke opacity.
