Abstract
Today, 88 % from the total amount of energy used worldwide is represented by fossil fuels (oil, natural gas and coal). Oil dependence required a diversification of fuels in the transport sector in general and road transport in order to stop global warming. Alternative fuels difference slightly in terms of such phisical properties as: density, viscosity and bulk modulus, properties which influence the fuel injection parameters such as penetrability, Sauter Mean Diameter and vaporization rate. The European Union adopted Directive 2003/30/EC to enforce the use of biofuels and other alternative fuels. EU member states must achieve a target of 20 % of alternative fuels used in the transport sector. These lead to different combustion characteristics. The main objective of this paper is to determine the influence of alternative fuels produced by Fischer–Tropsch synthesis from the gasification of biomass used for compression ignited engines.
