Abstract
Ability to do work is known as energy. The energy is of two types’ i.e. Renewable and Non Renewable energy sources which have abundant storage but Non Renewable have limited storage, hence it is essential to use Renewable energy source and conserve energy. Growing importance regarding energy resources and environment safety motivates for study of alternative sources of energy. To meet energy demand we should search alternate source of energy which has large storage and which is of less emission also. The aim of this work is to compare emission and effects on environment. Hence from many researchers concluded that use Biodiesel is one of the favorable option as an Alternative fuel for Diesel because of the performance from Biodiesel is same that of diesel in Diesel Engine. With the use of Biodiesel we improve Brake Specific Fuel Consumption (BSFC) by 18-24%. Important advantage of use of Biodiesel is that there were no needs of change in arrangement of the Diesel engine. Hence, today focus on use of waste cooking oil as feed stocks for biodiesel production.
