(Debabrata Barik) ABSTRACT Biodiesel is considered as one of the potential liquid alternative fuels in many countries in the world. It is produced from edible and non-edible oils, animal fat, and algae by the transesterification process. In India, Karanja (Pongamia pinnata) a non-edible oil seed is considered as a potential feedstock for biodiesel production. The de-oiled cakes of Karanja seed obtained from expeller units are of no use, and are disposed in the open. The disposal of such non edible oil cake in the open and land fill generates various anthropogenic gases, and may increase the global warming potential (GWP). The organic matters contained in these de-oiled cakes can be converted to useful energy by adopting a proper waste-to-energy conversion process. Hence, an attempt was made in this investigation to use the Karanja seed cake (SCK) as a potential feedstock for producing biogas by anaerobic digestion, and the produced biogas was proposed as an alternative fuel for CI engines. Initially, biogas was produced from four different proportions of SCK mixed with cattle dung (CD) in small scale rectors, to study the different parameters effecting the biogas production. The SCK-CD was mixed in the proportion of 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100 in percentage on a mass basis, and the mixtures were denoted as S1, S2, S3, and S4 respectively. Important parameters, such as the pH, temperature, hydraulic retention time (HRT), and carbon/nitrogen ratio (C/N) were evaluated and analyzed. The results indicated that the sample S3 gave the best result, in comparison with the other samples, and the methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) contents in the biogas were found to be about 73% and 17% respectively. The sample S3 was chosen for producing biogas in a large scale floating drum digester. The biogas obtained from the floating drum digester was stored in a gas bag and then characterized for its physiochemical properties, to ensure its application as a gaseous alternative fuel for CI engine. For ensuring its usage as an alternative fuel in a CI engine, it was tested in a single cylinder, four stroke, air cooled, direct injection (DI) diesel engine developing a power of 4.4 kW at a rated speed of 1500 rpm. The engine was modified to operate on the dual fuel mode. In the first module, the experimental results obtained from the diesel, KME, and dual fuel engine operated with diesel/biodiesel-biogas were validated by a three zone modeling using MATLAB. Combustion parameters, such as peak cylinder pressure, and ignition delay, and emission parameters, such as NO and smoke emission were validated. The validation i indicated that there was a deviation of only about 2-3% between the theoretical and experimental results. After the modeling work experimental investigation on the engine was performed. Two groups (A and B) of experimental modules were proposed to assess the dual fuel engine’s behavior. In group A, two experimental modules were proposed with diesel-biogas dual fuel. In the first module, diesel was used as an injected fuel (pilot) for initiating combustion, and biogas was inducted at four different flow rates in the suction of the engine, varying from 0.3 kg/h to 1.2 kg/h in steps of 0.3 kg/h. The combustion, performance and emission parameters of the engine were evaluated, analyzed and compared with those of diesel operation of the same engine. It was observed that the engine exhibited a drop in brake thermal efficiency and increase in CO and HC emissions throughout the load spectrum. Further, tests were conducted to determine the optimum injection timing of the pilot fuel in the diesel-biogas dual fuel mode, when the engine was operated at the optimum biogas flow rate of 0.9 kg/h. The injection timing of diesel (pilot fuel) was advanced to a maximum of 4.5 oCA in steps of 1.5 oCA, from the original injection timing of the engine. The engine behavior in terms of the combustion, performance and emissions was determined, and compared with those of the diesel-biogas dual fuel operation. Based on the experimental results, the advanced injection timing of 26 oCA was chosen as the optimum injection timing for the pilot injection. The data obtained with the diesel-biogas dual operation with the injection timing of 26 oCA were considered as reference data for further investigations in this study. After conducting experiments with the diesel-biogas, a few attempts were made in group B to run the engine only on two different renewable fuels (biodiesel and biogas) that were obtained from a single source of feedstock. In group B, as the first module, biodiesel was used as an injected (pilot) fuel instead of diesel and biogas was used as an inducted fuel. In this operation, biogas was inducted at different flow rates varying from 0.3 kg/h to 1.2 kg/h at regular intervals of 0.3 kg/h in the suction of the engine. From the results, it was observed that the ignition delay was reduced by about 2-4 oCA for the biodiesel-biogas dual fuel operation from that of the optimized diesel-biogas operation (26 oCA pilot fuel injection timing with biogas at 0.9 kg/h) at full load. In the second module, the injection timing of the pilot fuel (biodiesel) was advanced to a maximum of 4.5 oCA at regular intervals of 1.5 oCA and retarded to 1.5 oCA, from that of the original injection timing.

  • Gasworks and Gasholders Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary
    Gasworks and Gasholders Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary Historic England’s Introductions to Heritage Assets (IHAs) are accessible, authoritative, illustrated summaries of what we know about specific types of archaeological site, building, landscape or marine asset. Typically they deal with subjects which lack such a summary. This can either be where the literature is dauntingly voluminous, or alternatively where little has been written. Most often it is the latter, and many IHAs bring understanding of site or building types which are neglected or little understood. Gas works, or sites where gas was manufactured by thermally decomposing fossil fuels and stored in gasholders, were one of the most ubiquitous and widely distributed industrial complexes of the 19th and 20th centuries. Frequently constructed on the edges of urban areas, close to their customers and adjacent to rivers, canals and railways - reflecting both the inability of the early works to transmit gas over large distances and the reliance Front cover: on a supply of coal – meant that gasworks and gasholders had a The Cheltenham Gas considerable visual impact on the landscape.
