摘要

Currently, the globe is shifting toward an alternative fuel source due to the environmental concerns and shortages associated with crude petroleum and its derivatives. A portion of crude petroleum products might be replaced by biofuel. Research on the impacts of utilizing biodiesel as fuel in internal combustion (IC) engines is being driven by the extended usage of this fuel in compression ignition (CI) engines, specifically how the characteristics of lubricating oil change. Using biodiesel as a fuel brings about modifications and concerns with the lubricating oil, which are addressed in this paper. In order to analyze the degradation of lubricating oil, an on-road endurance test was conducted with base diesel fuel as well as optimized B40 of cardanol–diesel biodiesel for a service period of 3000 km. Cardanol oil is a by-product of cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) and was utilized as biodiesel in this work. Lubricating oil is retrieved from the oil sump and then tested for deterioration when the service term ends. Following established protocols, we compared the two lubricating oils’ physical properties to those of new lubricating oil. Lubricating oil powered by B40 of cardanol–diesel fuel outperforms lubricating oil powered by diesel fuel, according to the data.
