Abstract
Diesel engine is a preferred power source that is used for power plant and major source for inland transportation. Diesel engine power plants are preferred where power has to be generated in small quantity or used as standby sets, which are required for commercial use. The uses of diesel engine can cause pollutants such as damage ozone layer, enhance green house effect and produce acid rain because of the production Particulate Matter x, and PM emission. However, the uses of biodiesel can produce NO emission. The emulsified biodiesel is the fuel, which can solve the NO X x emissions. Emulsified biodiesel is combination of water and biodiesel with present of addition of surfactant. The objective in this study is to find out the optimum formulation and method to produce the highest emulsion stability of emulsified biodiesel. The study scope are study the optimum method of production, effect of the water and biodiesel contain, variation volume Span 80 and Tween 80, variation mixing speed, variation mixing time and types of biodiesel to the stability of emulsified biodiesel. Emulsified biodiesel produce by using the Mechanical Stir Machine and form the emulsified biodiesel types O/W phase. The biodiesel are produce from the palm oil. The volume of biodiesel, water and surfactant are measure by using syringe. From the experiment the uses of 95 % of biodiesel and 5 % of water can produce highest stability emulsion because the present of high volume of biodiesel fuel. The most suitable mixing time and mixing speed are 15 minutes and 700 rpm. The optimum volume Span 80 and Tween 80 are 0.7 ml and 1.5 ml. Both of surfactant are lipophilic and hypophlilic. The lipophile are function for absorb oil phase and hydrophilic absorb water phase. Both of the surfactant determine by the Hypophilic Lipophilic Balance.
