The purpose of this study is to measure the droplet distribution and Sauter mean diameter(SMD) of biodiesel fuel, using the immersion sampling method. This method involves using an optical microscope and a CCD camera, to take an image of the droplets. These images are then measured by using a 'Sigma Scan' processing program. The results of the above experiment are summarized as followed ; (1) There can be as much as a 10% error rate when measuring the diameter of these droplets, using the image processing method and the naked eye. (2) The result of droplet size distribution test, TVO(transesterified vegetable oil) big size droplet distribution were increased at ambient pressure $6kg/cm^2$. (3) When ambient pressure increased $6kg/cm^2$ above, SMD variation of TVO and UVO(used vegetable oil) 30 are small. (4) On Rosin-Rammler analysis, droplets size distribution of UVO(used vegetable oil) 30 uniform more than TVO 20 on ambient pressure $1kg/cm^2$.

A CRDI diesel engine used to commercial vehicle was fueled with diesel fuel and 20% biodiesel blended fuel (BDF 20%) and tested at the Seoul-10 mode for 150 hours. Engine dynamometer testing was completed at regularly scheduled intervals to monitor the engine performance and exhaust emissions. To check the engine parts (valve, injector), the engine was inspected after 150 hours running test. It was concluded that there was no unusual deterioration of the engine, or the changes in engine power (below 1.9%), smoke (below 4.1%), NOx (below 3.7%) and durability characteristics in spite of operation of 150 hours run with BDF 20%. The difference of kinetic viscosity for engine oil (before and after durability testing) was below 0.19% at $100^{\circ}C$.

In this study, it was tried to analyze not only total hydrocarbon but individual hydrocarbon components from C$_1$to C$\sub$6/ in exhaust gas using gas chromatography to seek the reason fur remarkable differences of smoke emission of diesel fuel, esterfied rice bran oil and blended fuel(esterfied rice bran oil 20vo1-% + diesel fuel 80vo1-%). Individual hydrocarbons(C$_1$ ∼C$\sub$6/) as well as total hydrocarbon of esterfied rice bran oil is reduced remarkably compared with diesel fuel. Although smoke emission of esterfied rice bran oil reduced remarkably compared with commercial diesel fuel, NOx emission of esterfied rice bran oil and blended fuel was increased slightly at high loads and speeds. And, it was tried to reduced NOx emission of them by exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) method. Simultaneous reduction of smoke and NOx emission was achieved with the combination of esterfied rice bran oil and EGR method in consequence.

Our environment is faced with serious problems related to the air pollution from automobiles in these days. In particular, the exhaust emissions from diesel engine are recognized main cause which influenced environment strong. In this study, the potential possibility of biodiesel fuel and oxygenates additives (dimethoxy methane) was investigated as an alternative fuel for a naturally aspirated direct injection diesel engine. The smoke emission of blending fuel (biodiesel fuel 90vol-% + DMM 10vol-%) was reduced in comparison with diesel fuel, that is, it was reduced approximately 70% at 2500 rpm, full load. But, power, torque and brake specific energy consumption didn't have no large differences. But, NOx emissions from biodiesel fuel and DMM blended fuel were increased compared with commercial diesel fuel.

A CRDI diesel engine used to commercial vehicle was fueled with diesel fuel and 5% biodiesel blended fuel (BDF 5%) and tested at the Seoul-10 mode for 150 hours. Engine dynamometer testing was completed at regularly scheduled intervals to monitor the engine performance and exhaust emissions. To check the engine parts (valve, injector), the engine was inspected after 150 hours running test. It was concluded that there was no unusual deterioration of the engine, or the changes in engine power (below 2.6%), smoke (below 6.2%), NOx (below 2%) and durability characteristics in spite of operation of 150 hours run with BDF 5%. The difference of kinetic viscosity for engine oil (before and after durability testing) was below 0.36%

차랑 등의 수송연료인 휘발유나 경유에 일정비율을 식물에서 뽑아낸 신재생연료 즉 바이오 연료를 혼합하여 공급하도록 의무화하여 온실가스 배출을 줄이기 위한 신재생연료 혼합의무제도(RFS) 국내 시행방안과 관련한 공청회가 지난 2월 15일 서울교육문화회관에서 지식경제부 주최와 한국석유관리원 주관으로 개최됐다. 정부는 2020년까지 경유나 휘발유에 바이오 디젤 에탄올을 4~5% 섞게 하여 동 기간까지 온실가스 감축목표량 중 8~10%까지 달성한다는 계획을 세워놓고 있다. 하지만 녹색연대 등 민간단체들은 온실가스 감축 효과는 매우 불확실하며 특히 어떤 원료를 쓰느냐에 따라 오히려 기후변화를 악화시킬 수 있다는 주장과 산림훼손, 세계 곡물가 상승, 국내 유가 상승 등 많은 문제점들이 있음을 우려해 강하게 반대를 표명하고 있는 입장이다. 우리 협회에서도 곡물을 이용한 에탄올의 혼합의무가 시행되는 경우 옥수수 등 사료원료가격의 상승으로 가뜩이나 어려운 축산업의 경영상황을 더욱 약화시키게 될 것이 예견되는 바, 동 혼합의무제도의 시행을 적극 반대하는 대 국회 및 정부활동을 전개한 바 있다. 그 결과 지난 4월 17일 국회 지식경제위원회 법률심사소위원회에서는 신재생연료 혼합의무제도의 시행 시기를 2년간 유보하고 혼합의무연료에서 에탄올을 제외시키는 방안을 논의한 바 있어 향후 입법과정에 관심이 모아지고 있다. 이에 따라 본지는 이번 RFS의 국내 시행과 관련하여 어떠한 문제점들이 있는지 관련 업계 종사자의 글을 통해 알아본다.

Biodiesel fuel is already remarkable alternative fuel in many countries. So, many studies are performed on the environmental or economic effects as well as the characteristics of diesel engine fueled biodiesel in combustion and emission. In this study, an CRDI diesel engine used to commercial vehicle was fueled with diesel fuel and 20% biodiesel blended fuel (BDF 20%) with city mode in excess of 300 hours. Engine dynamometer testing was completed at regularly scheduled intervals to monitor the engine performance and exhaust emissions. The engine performance and exhaust emissions were sampled at 1 hour interval for analysis. To check the engine parts (valve and injector), the engine was inspected after test. It was concluded that there were no unusual deteriorations of the engine, or any unusual changes in engine power and exhaust emissions in spite of operation of 300 hours with BDF 20%.

The vast stores of biomass available in the worldwide have the potential to displace significant amounts of fuels that are currently derived from petroleum sources. Fast pyrolysis of biomass is one of possible paths by which we can convert biomass to higher value products. The wood pyrolysis oil (WPO), also known as the bio crude oil (BCO), have been regarded as an alternative fuel for petroleum fuels to be used in diesel engine. However, the use of BCO in a diesel engine requires modifications due to low energy density, high water contents, low acidity, and high viscosity of the BCO. One of the easiest way to adopt BCO to diesel engine without modifications is emulsification of BCO with diesel and bio diesel. In this study, a diesel engine operated with diesel, bio diesel (BD), BCO/diesel, BCO/bio diesel emulsions was experimentally investigated. Performance and gaseous & particle emission characteristics of a diesel engine fuelled by BCO emulsions were examined. Results showed that stable engine operation was possible with emulsions and engine output power was comparable to diesel and bio diesel operation. However, in case of BCO/diesel emulsion operation, THC & CO emissions were increased due to the increased ignition delay and poor spray atomization and NOx & Soot were decreased due to the water and oxygen in the fuel. Long term validation of adopting BCO in diesel engine is still needed because the oil is acid, with consequent problems of corrosion and clogging especially in the injection system.

바이오디젤 (지방산 메틸에스테르)을 기반으로 하여 생산된 합성윤활유 베이스에 대한 독성을 분석 평가하였다. OECD 207의 방법에 의거하여 인공토양(artifical soil)에서 300$\~$600 mg의 지렁이를 선별하였다. 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100과 1,000 mg/kg의 각 농도별로 선별된 지렁이를 10마리씩 넣고 수분 $31\~37\%$, 온도 $20{\pm}2^{\circ}C$와 PH 6.0 $\pm$ 0.5를 조절하여 14일간 지렁이의 반수치사농도(lethal concentration when $50\%$ of the population were killed, $LC_{50}$)를 측정하였다. 합성윤활유의 측정 된 반수치사농도($LC_{50}$)는 1,555 mg/kg로 측정되었으며, 유의 확률이 < 0.02로서 유의수준 $5\%$에서 유의함을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구는 바이오디젤유 부산물로 제조한 공액리놀레산(Conjugated Linoleic Acid, CLA)을 비유중기 착유우에 첨가 수준을 달리하여 급여하였을 때 산유량, 유성분 및 혈액성상에 미치는 영향을 조사하고자 실시하였다. 공시동물은 비유중기 홀스타인 20두($631{\pm}25.0kg$)로 시험구당 5두를 배치하였으며, 기초사료($NE_L$ 32 Mcal/d, CP 17%)로 농후사료(12kg), 옥수수 사일리지(15kg) 및 톨페스큐+오차드그라스 건초(4kg)를 1일 2회 균등 급여하였다. CLA의 1일 급여수준은 0(대조구), 50(T1), 100(T2) 및 150g(T3)으로 달리하여 네처리군을 설정하고 예비 시험 2주와 본 시험 4주를 수행하였다. 착유우에 CLA의 급여량이 증가함에 따라 산유량과 4% FCM은 점진적으로 증가하였으나, 유지방 함량은 유의적으로 감소하였다(p<0.05). 사료중 CLA 첨가 수준이 증가함에 따라, 우유의 Stearic acid와 Oleic acid 함량은 감소한 반면, total CLA 함량은 증가하였다(p<0.05). 따라서 본 연구에서는 비유중기 착유우 사료에 바이오디젤유 부산물로 제조한 CLA를 첨가하는 것은 유생산량 증가와 유지방 내 CLA 함량 증가에 유리할 것으로 판단된다.
