Combustion of Camelina Oil – Kerosene Mixtures in a Micro Gas Turbine

Abstract:

Nowadays a major preoccupation is the production and usage of fuels obtained from renewable and eco-friendly sources. One option is the usage of vegetable oils which have a low contain of sulphur and aromatics and are totally biodegradable. Camelina is one of the most promising sources of renewable fuels. Camelina is well-suited to be a sustainable biofuel crop, as it naturally contains high oil content. The experiments presented in this paper focus on the combustion of camelina oil and kerosene mixtures in a micro gas turbine. During each experiment, the following have been recorded: the oil-kerosene percentage, the exhaust gases temperature, and the CO, NO_x and O₂ percentage in the exhaust gases.
