A comparison study on fuel properties of pretreated Pongamia and Jatropha methyl esters for C.I. engine usage

A comparison study was done with untreated and pretreated Pongamia and Jatropha methyl esters for recovery and fuel properties. It is observed that the pretreatment of the seeds enhanced the yield of Pongamia and Jatropha methyl esters. Pretreated methyl ester showed considerable reduction in viscos...
