Ternary Blends of Renewable Fast Pyrolysis Bio‐Oil, Advanced Bioethanol, and Marine Gasoil as Potential Marine Biofuel
Abstract
An alternative for reducing emissions from marine fuel is to blend bio‐oil from lignocellulose non‐edible feedstocks to diesel fossil fuels. Phase diagrams of the ternary systems were built to represent the transition from heterogeneous regions to homogeneous regions. Four homogeneous blends of bio‐oil of eucalyptus‐bioethanol‐marine gasoil were experimentally characterized with respect to the most important fuel parameters for marine engines: water content, flash point, low heating value, viscosity, and acidity. Blends with closer properties to marine gasoil replacement, lower costs, and environmental impacts should be tested for large engines.
