This research paper examines the performance characteristics and emission profiles of algae-based biodiesel in compression ignition engines. Through systematic laboratory testing and engine trials, this study evaluates the combustion behavior, engine performance parameters, and exhaust emissions of various algal biodiesel blends compared to conventional diesel fuel. Results indicate that algae-based biodiesel demonstrates promising combustion properties with significant reductions in particulate matter, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide emissions. However, nitrogen oxide emissions showed a moderate increase. Engine performance parameters, including brake thermal efficiency and brake specific fuel consumption, revealed competitive performance with slight variations from conventional diesel. This paper concludes that algae-based biodiesel represents a viable renewable alternative to petroleum diesel, offering significant environmental advantages while maintaining satisfactory engine performance characteristics.
