The International Biodiesel Day

The International Biodiesel Day (IBD) is celebrated on August 10 to create awareness about non fossil-fuels (Green Fuels). The day also honours the research experiments by Sir Rudolf Diesel who ran an engine with peanut oil in the year of 1893.

His research experiment had predicted that vegetable oil is going to replace the fossil fuels in the next century to fuel different mechanical engines. It was established to commemorate the first ignition of the diesel engine that took place on this day in 1893.

Diesel built his first prototype in the early summer of 1893 and run its for the first time on August 10, 1893. Some sources claim that the prototype used peanut oil as fuel.

The Biodiesel is an alternative fuel which can be used in place of fossil fuels. It is manufactured from vegetable oils, recycled grease, algae, and animal fat. It can be seen as alternative to conventional fossil fuels.

 

Biodiesel is a renewable fuel. It can be used in diesel engines with little or no modification. It can be produced locally. It emits 60% less carbon dioxide (CO2). The energy produced by biodiesel on combustion is approximately 90% of that of energy produced by petroleum diesel.
