Abstract

This study investigates the impact of biodiesel on jet engine performance and emissions, specifically focusing on the engine. With increasing pressure to reduce aviation's environmental footprint, alternative fuels such as biodiesel are being considered for their potential to mitigate NOX and CO2 emissions. The study employs a quantitative methodology to analyse the effects of biodiesel blends on engine performance and emission levels. Key research questions include how biodiesel influences NOX emission levels, the relationship between biodiesel blend ratios and CO2 emissions, and whether biodiesel can maintain acceptable engine performance. Additionally, the study examines the quadratic behaviour of NOX emissions in response to increasing biodiesel concentrations and evaluates the feasibility of biodiesel as a sustainable aviation fuel. Using simulation data from 2023, the research identifies key relationships between biodiesel blend ratios, emissions, and performance, demonstrating that biodiesel can effectively reduce NOX emissions, although it results in a proportional increase in CO2 emissions. The study concludes by emphasizing the importance of optimizing biodiesel blends for aviation, advocating for future research to explore real-world applications and long-term performance outcomes.
