Abstract

As the environmental pollution by the drastic increase of vehicles becomes one of the social major concerns, the method of reducing the harmful exhaust emission is being the subject of interest. Utilization of waste edible oil as a raw material for biodiesel production is helpful not only for the stable supply of raw materials but also costing down the biodiesel price. This study was conducted to examine the combustion and thermal characteristics with mixing ratio of biodiesel fuel. Flash points, fire points and autoignition temperature (AIT) were measured by using Tag closed cup, Cleveland open cup flash point tester and AIT apparatus. As the result, flash points, fire points and AIT increased with percentage of more contained biodiesel.

자동차의 비약적인 증가로 인해 비롯된 환경오염이 사회적 주된 문제가 되기 때문에 유해한 배기가스의 방출을 감소시키는 방법에 대해 관심이 고조되고 있다. 바이오디젤을 생산 원료로서의 폐식용유의 활용은 원료의 안정적인 공급뿐만 아니라 바이오디젤의 가격을 낮추는데 유용하다. 본 연구는 바이오디젤 연료의 혼합 비율에 따른 연소성 및 열적 특성을 검토하기 위해 수행되었다. 이 연구를 위하여 Tag 밀폐식, Cleveland 개방식 인화점 시험기와 자연발화점 시험기를 이용하여 인화점 및 연소점, 자연발화점을 측정하였다. 그 결과 바이오디젤의 혼합 비율이 높아짐에 따라 인화점 및 연소점, 자연발화점이 증가하였다.
