This book was released on 2020-07-10 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on biodiesel combustion, including biodiesel performance, emissions and control. It brings together a range of international research in combustion studies in order to offer a comprehensive resource for researchers, students and academics alike. The book begins with an introduction to biodiesel combustion, followed by a discussion of NOx formation routes. It then addresses biodiesel production processes and oil feedstocks in detail, discusses the physiochemical properties of biodiesel, and explores the benefits and drawbacks of these properties. Factors influencing the formation of emissions, including NOx emissions, are also dealt with thoroughly. Lastly, the book discusses the mechanisms of pollution and different approaches used to reduce pollutants in connection with biodiesel. Each approach is considered in detail, and diagrams are provided to illustrate the points in line with industry standard control mechanisms.

Book Utilisation d un biocarburant    base d huile de palme dans les moteurs    combustion interne

Download or read book Utilisation d un biocarburant base d huile de palme dans les moteurs combustion interne written by Pascal Ndayishimiye and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les propriétés physiques et chimiques de l’huile de palme sont très proches de celles du carburant diesel. L’huile de palme peut donc être utilisée pure sans modification du moteur. Toutefois, sa viscosité reste un des obstacles majeurs à son utilisation directe. Il faut donc réduire cette viscosité pour la rapprocher de celle du diesel. Les différents procédés utilisés actuellement pour réduire la viscosité sont chers et souvent difficiles d’accès, particulièrement pour les pays producteurs potentiels de l’huile de palme. Ce travail propose donc d’étudier d’autres voies et procédés de traitements moins coûteux et faciles à mettre en œuvre. Différents procédés (préchauffage, dilution, transestérification et mélanges) ont été utilisés et les biocarburants ainsi formulés, testés dans un moteur diesel. Les résultats ont été analysés et comparés. Il y a une légère diminution du rendement et une augmentation de la consommation, mais il y a une diminution sensible des émissions polluantes, sauf pour les oxydes d’azote. Au vu de tous ces résultats, tous les carburants à base d’huile de palme formulés peuvent donc être utilisés dans un moteur diesel non modifié sans en altérer les caractéristiques. L’analyse des résultats a permis d’identifier le mélange qui présente les meilleurs avantages au point de vue des caractéristiques de la combustion, des performances, des émissions polluantes ainsi que du coût de production. A partir de l’analyse économique effectuée, le coût du biocarburant formulé montre que la filière de production du biodiesel n’est pas économiquement rentable, du moins si le prix du diesel reste à son niveau actuel

Download or read book Le palmier huile written by Jean-Charles Jacquemard and published by Editions Quae. This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'huile de palme, extraite de la pulpe des fruits du palmier à huile, est aujourd'hui la première source de corps gras végétal sur le marché mondial. C'est un élément majeur de la sécurité alimentaire des pays d'Asie et de la ceinture tropicale. Revers de ce succès, la filière fait l'objet de critiques parfois vives quant à son impact sur l'environnement et la déforestation. Fondé sur les connaissances scientifiques et techniques accumulées par les chercheurs et experts du Cirad, cet ouvrage prend également en compte le travail accompli en matière de développement durable du palmier à huile depuis le début des années 2000, qui devrait conduire rapidement à une certification de la filière garante de bonnes pratiques. D'une culture respectant l'objectif d'une production durable aux effets de la consommation de l'huile de palme sur la santé humaine, cet ouvrage aborde tous les aspects de la plante et de ses produits : marché, morphologie et biologie, création et exploitation d'une palmeraie avec étude d'impact environnemental et socio-économique, extraction et utilisation des produits et sous-produits, sécurité au travail et santé. Rédigé en un langage simple et clair, ce guide technique est d'abord destiné à un large public de professionnels de terrain. Il sera aussi un outil de référence pour les chercheurs et les étudiants voulant se documenter sur cette plante.
