Özet

Animal-derived waste streams, specifically lipids and osseous tissues, represent a highly viable feedstock for biodiesel production. This approach improves biodiesel yield and provides a sustainable method for managing the animal by-products. In this experimental research, the engine characteristics, including the combustion, performance, and emission analysis, were carried out with biodiesel derived from duck meat derived waste (DMW). The DMW biodiesel has a higher cetane number and higher fatty acid content as compared to the diesel fuel and is derived through a transesterification process. It was blended with conventional diesel fuel at a volumetric ratio of diesel 80% and biodiesel 20% (DMWB20). Furthermore, titanium dioxide (TiO2) and cerium dioxide (CeO2) nanoparticles were added to the test fuels to enhance their properties in a separate and hybrid way. In the results, it is seen that particularly DMWB20/hybrid blend provides the smoother combustion profiles with an HRR of 55.9 J CA−1, which indicates the moderated combustion intensity, and superior engine performance parameters, achieving a higher BTE (32.1%). On the other hand, the nanoparticle addition results in a reduction in the exhaust emissions. DMWB20/hybrid blend at full load achieved 36%, and 17% reduction in CO, and NOX emissions compared to DMWB20, respectively. These enhancements not only improve engine efficiency but also contribute to environmental sustainability. Therefore, DMW biodiesel with hybrid nanoparticle conditions stands out as a promising, eco-friendly alternative fuel option.
