A Review on Biofuel Production from Fish Waste Oil
J. Environ. Nanotechnol., Volume 13, No 2 (2024) pp. 294-297
Abstract
Biodiesel is a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based diesel. Waste Fish Oil (WFO) is a promising raw material for biofuel production due to its high lipid content. This study attempts to review the IC engine performance characteristics using WFO-based biofuel. The results showed improved engine performance, reduced emissions, and improved fuel efficiency. The benefits are attributed to the unique properties of WFO-biodiesel, including its high cetane number, low viscosity, and lower sulfur and aromatic content. Waste fish oil is a low-cost and readily available source of lipid, making it a promising alternative to petroleum diesel. Long term performance characteristics of fish oil-based biofuel should be evaluated more extensively for future use.
