- Abstract
The environment is naturally polluted with reversible effects through biological and biochemical cycles. Artificial pollution from industry activities disrupts natural cycles with irreversible consequences. Internal combustion engines are among the most polluting machines manufactured by humans. Worldwide they are used in transport, road, naval and air or agriculture offering a long running range. Reducing gas emissions from combustion to engines is a research topic for specialists around the world. The use of biofuels is a research direction approached by thermal engine companies with promising results. The EU has issued regulatory acts setting limits on emissions that affect the quality of the environment. In this paper we present the measures imposed by the EU for thermal engine manufacturers. The results of laboratory research for different concentrations of biodiesel at different load and speed regimes will be presented in a future paper.
