Investigation of performance and emission characteristics of waste cooking oil as biodiesel in a diesel engine
Abstract Biodiesel is one of the most popular prospective alternative fuels and can be obtained from a variety of sources. Waste frying oil is one such source along with the various raw vegetable oils. However, some specific technical treatments are required to improve certain fuel properties such a...
