Description
Summary:Biodiesel is considered as one of the alternative fuel of the most reliable to overcome the problem of energy security and environmental pollution this time. The use of biodiesel still has some problems to be resolved, especially in terms of price, quality and performance. One way to improve the quality of biosolar is mixing additives into it. <br /> <br /> <br /> This Research aims to determine the effect the addition of biodiesel and additives on fuel consumption. This test is conducted by using 1 type of additives and 5 levels of biodiesel, B2.5, B5, B10, B15 and B20 that used in diesel generator set Huawei 5000CE <br /> <br /> <br /> Results from testing known thrift is nearly almost the entire load except at 40% load. The highest thrift achieved at full load. <br /> <br /> <br /> In general, biodiesel and additives to reduce fuel consumption. The highest thrift is 14.051% that produced by B20 with levels of 1200ppm at 100% load. From the results of this research are expected in energy usage can be significantly reduced, that is by arrange level of biodiesel and additive in diesel fuel.
