K1 fatty acid composition
AB Nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) currently are the main pollutantsemitted by diesel engines. While there is a start in using hybrid and electric cars, ships will stillbe fueled by mineral oil products. In the quest to achieve zero-pollution and carbon-free shipping,alternative forms of energy carriers must be found to replace the commonly used mineral oil products.One of the possible alternative fuels is biodiesel. This paper explores the optimization of thecomposition of biodiesel in order to reduce the concentration of particulate matter and NOx inexhaust gases of a one-cylinder diesel generator.
