This study is aimed at determining the use of PALM OIL Bio-Diesel as an alternative fuel. For this the performance and different emissions have been studied and compared with the baseline diesel fuel. The fuels were tested at different loading conditions. The various performance parameters studied are BTE, BSFC, and BP different unregulated emissions. The result was compared and presented in this paper. The PALM OIL Bio-Diesel showed the comparable performance and emissions characteristics as that of diesel.

Keywords: Bio-Diesel; Blending; Transesterification; Palm oil.
