Abstract

The demand for alternate fuels used in the operation of I.C engine is met with CNSL (Cashew nut shell liquid) a by-product of cashew industry which is considered as an economically suitable for producing biodiesel. Cashew nut shell liquid is obtained from the hard cashew nut shell, cardinal a natural phenol obtained from the pyrolysis of CNSL at reduced pressure. The viscosity of the cardinal is very high compared to that of diesel. The parametric characteristic of I.C engines with various injection timing and pressure using fuel as Cashew nut shell oil is found. Cashew nut shell liquid is being used in our Defence force heavy truck vehicle-SHAKTHIMAN.
