| Summary: | In this paper a classification and analysing of commercial and synthesized additives used with biodiesel by different
researchers was conducted. Biodiesel is widely accepted as an alternative fuel comparable to petroleum diesel in
compression ignition engines. It is relatively poor cold flow property is a characteristic which limits its application. Here,
fuel additives become the most viable choice not only to decrease this drawback but also to produce specified products that
meet international and regional standards. This article covers a deep and through literature review of the effect of different
additives on biodiesel properties, engine performance, and emission characteristics. The additives usage in biodiesel is
inseparable both for improving the cold flow properties and for better engine performance and emission control. It can be
concluded from the literature that specific additives for biodiesel remain at their infancy. Further research is needed to
develop biodiesel specific additives.
