한국과 인도네시아를 포함한 대부분의 국가는 온실가스 감축을 위해 바이오디젤 같은 바이오연료 보급에 대한 강력한 정책을 추진하고 있다. 하지만, 바이오디젤 보급 확대를 위해서는 원료 부족 문제를 먼저 해결해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 원료 공급 안정성을 개선하고 바이오디젤 생산 가격을 낮추기 위해 비식용이면서 동시에 단위면적당 생산성이 높은 인도네시아 열대작물(R. Trisperma) 오일의 바이오디젤 생산 가능성을 조사하였다. 수확기간이 다른 두 종류의 오일은 많은 불순물과 높은 유리지방산 함량을 가지고 있어 효율적인 바이오디젤 생산을 위해, 에스테르화 반응과 전이에스테르화 반응을 실시하였다. 오일은 반응을 진행하기 앞서 여과와 수분제거 과정을 통해 반응의 효율을 높이고자 하였다. 에스테르화 반응은 불균질계 산 촉매인 Amberlyst-15를 사용하였으며, 반응 전 오일들의 산가는 각각 41, 17 mg KOH / g이었으나, 에스테르화 반응 후 3.7, 1.8 mg KOH/g으로 약 90% 이상의 전환율을 보이며 유리지방산 함량을 2%이하로 감소시켰다. 이후 전이에스테르화 반응은 KOH를 염기 촉매로 사용하여 바이오디젤 합성 실험을 진행하였다. 생성된 바이오디젤은 약 93%의 FAME 함량을 나타냈으며, 총 글리세롤의 함량은 0.43%으로 제품 규격(FAME 96.5%, 총 글리세롤 0.24%)에는 미달되었다. 이는 지방산 조성 분석 결과 일반적으로 관찰되지 않는 특이 지방산인 ${\alpha}$-Eleostearic acid가 10.7~33.4% 포함되어 나타나는 특성으로 판단되며, 추가 반응 최적화 및 분리정제 연구 진행으로 연료품질 규격 달성이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 기존에 활용되지 못하던 비식용 원료로부터 바이오디젤 생산 기술을 확보할 경우 바이오디젤 보급 확대를 위한 안정적 원료 공급에 기여할 것으로 판단된다.

In order to investigate the spray characteristics according to diesel and bioethanol blending with biodiesel fuel, macroscopic spray characteristics were analyzed from the comparison of the effect of the injection pressure, ambient pressure and density on the spray tip penetration and spray cone angle. In addition, spray atomization characteristics were studied with local and overall Sauter mean diameter (SMD) and the contour map of SMD distribution at various injection conditions. It was revealed that the spray tip penetration of biodiesel fuels blended with diesel and ethanol was shorter than that of an undiluted biodiesel fuel at low injection pressure. However, the difference of spray tip penetration among three test fuels reduces at a high injection pressure. Increase of the ambient gas density leads to the decrease of the spray tip penetration of three test fuels. When diesel and ethanol fuels add to an undiluted biodiesel fuel, spray cone angle increases due to the decrease of the fuel density at the same ambient pressure condition. On the other hand, the droplet mean diameter decreases due to the reduction of the kinematic viscosity and surface tension.

We measured emission characteristics of CRDI diesel engine equipped with a commercial CPF. Experimental parameters adopted a neat diesel fuel, a blend of diesel fuel with 20% biodiesel, a blend of diesel fuel with 15% biodiesel and 5% ethanol. The experiments were carried out to measure the emission and engine performance according to ESC 13-mode cycles. The maximum torque with biodiesel blend fuel is slightly lower than that of neat diesel fuel in the entire the 13-mode cycles, and 5% ethanol and 15% biodiesel blend fuel is slightly higher than that of neat diesel fuel. THC and CO emissions of the biofuel blended diesel fuel were slightly increased and decreased, and mean conversion efficiencies of THC and CO on the commercial CPF were achieved about 70$\sim$87% in the ESC 13-mode. From the measurement by the Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer(SMPS), the total number and mass of nano-sized particles by a commercial CPF were decreased about 97.8% and 96.8 % in the range of the nano-size from 10.6 to 385nm, respectively.

Recently, we have a lot of interest in alternative fuels to provide energy independence from oil producing country and to reduce exhaust emissions for air pollution prevention. Biodiesel, which can be generated from natural renewable sources such as new or used vegetable oils or animal fats, may be used as fuel in diesel engine of compression ignition engine. In this paper, the test results on specific fuel consumption and exhaust emissions of neat diesel oil and biodiesel blends(10 vol.% biodiesel and 20 vol.% biodiesel) were presented using four stroke, direct injection diesel engine, especially this biodisel was produced from soybean oil at our laboratory. This study showed that Soot and CO emission were decreased as the blending ratios of biodiesel to diesel oil increased, on the other hand NOx emission was slightly increased because of the oxygen content in biodiesel. Also, the biodiesel blends yielded slightly higher specific fuel consumption than that of diesel oil because of lower heating value of biodiesel.

Recently many researchers have been studying the development of alternative energy due to serious environmental pollution and drying up fossil energy. Among various alternative fuels, authors investigated the physical and combustion characteristics of the bio diesel fuel(BDF) which was made from the wasted vegetable oil. In this study, PXI and LabVIEW, which is a novel measuring instrument and online analysis, was used to investigate the combustion characteristics of BDF in a DI diesel engine.

In this study, the potential possibility of biodiesel fuel(BDF) and oxygenated fuel(ethylene glycolvmono-n-butyl ether; EGBE) was investigated as an effective method of decreasing the smoke emission. The smoke emission of blending fuel (BDF and EGBE 0~20 vol-%) was reduced in comparison with diesel fuel and it was reduced approximately 64% at 2000 rpm, full load in the 20% of blending rate. But torque and brake specific energy consumption( BSEC) didn't have no large differences. Also, the effects of exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) for the reduction of NOx emission has been investigated. Consequently, It was found that simultaneous reduction of smoke and NOx emission was achieved with BDF(90 vol-%) and EGBE(10 vol-%) blended fuel and cooled EGR method(5~10%).

바이오디젤은 화석연료인 경유의 대체에너지로써 비독성이고 재생 가능한 에너지이다. 바이오디젤생산방법은 크게 산 염기 초임계 효소방법으로 분류되는데 본 연구에서 친환경적으로 바이오디젤을 생산할 수 있는 초임계공정과 효소고정화공정에 대해 연구하였다. 연간 10,000톤의 바이오디젤을 생산하는 공정을 대상으로 PRO II 공정모사기를 통해 전환률과 에너지소비량을 알아보기 위한 공정모사를 실시하였다. 그 결과 초임계공정에서의 전환률은 91.17%(0.9% 글리세롤 포함), 효소고정화공정에서는 93.58%(1.0% 글리세롤 포함)로 나타났다. 이 결과는 효소고정화공정이 높은 전환률을 보였지만 바이오디젤의 순도는 초임계공정에서 높게 나타났음을 보여준다. 한편, 에너지소비량 측면에서 초임계공정과 효소고정화공정이 각각 8.9, 3.9MW를 나타났다. 즉, 초임계 공정이 효소고정화공정에 비하여 2.3배 많은 에너지를 소모한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Lately, our world is faced with very serious problems related to the increased air pollution of the exhaust emissions from automobiles. In particular, the exhaust emissions of diesel engines are recognized as a main cause which strongly influence environment. Lots of researchers have attempted to develop various alternative fuels to reduce these harmful emissions in diesel engine. The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate the possibility of esterfied rice bran oil for diesel fuel substitution in a naturally aspirated D. 1. diesel engine, and also find means to reduce smoke emissions in esterfied rice bran oil combustion. The smoke emission of esterfied rice bran oil is reduced remarkably in comparison with commercial gas oil, that is, it was reduced approximately 58.2% at 2500rpm. But, power, torque and brake specific energy consumption didn't have no large differences. It was concluded that esterfied rice bran oil can utilize effectively as an alternative and renew- able fuel fur diesel engine.

This paper describes the power performance and emission characteristics of the high speed direct injection diesel engine (2.9 litter displacements) driven by soybean oil asknown a bio diesel fuel. The results were compared to diesel fuel with blending bio diesel fuels. The soybean bio diesel fuel was added in the diesel fuel in concentration varying from 25% to 75% volume rates. We measured the emissions according to ECE 13 mode and full load, fixedengine speed. When the 25% bio diesel fuel was used, NOx emission at the ECE 13 mode test slightly decreased compared with diesel base engine. Over engine speed of 2000 rpm, the level of unburned hydrocarbon(HC) and carbon monoxide(CO) were the same to the diesel engine. Smoke emission decreased asthe blending bio diesel fuel rate increased.
