A Conversion and Tribology Investigation on Used Ayurvedic Oil
View through CrossRef
Biofuel plays a major role in IC engine nowadays. Used Ayurvedic Oil (UAO) is one among the alternative fuels utilized. The preliminary property studies were carried out and the UAO had undergone simple Transesterification process to be converted to Used Ayurvedic Oil Methyl Ester (UAOME). The Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy analysis confirmed the UAO to UAOME conversion. The Trobological investigation on UAOME is also conducted using Four Ball Wear Tester. The results showed that lower wear scar was observed in UAOME comparatively with diesel. From the results it is clear that the UAO can be a novel partial substitute for diesel fuel.
