Biodiesel nowadays is emerging as an alternative fuel which is a good replacement to the petroleum diesel. Biodiesel is mainly derived from fats and oils by different methods such as dilution, pyrolysis, micro emulsification and transesterification but these days most commercial method used for bio-diesel production is 2- methyltetrahydrofuran transesterification. Biodiesel was prepared using transesterification process by optimizing the production parameters such as alcohol to oil molar ratio, catalyst concentration etc. Engine design also plays an important role as if it is improved it reduces fuel consumption and give better performance parameters. In this thesis the main emphasis has been laid on optimum production of biodiesel from neem oil and then using the biodiesel blends with diesel studying the comparative exhaust emission characteristics and engine performance. A four stroke single cylinder compression ignition engine was used to measure performance and emission parameters. Biodiesel (fire point and calorific value) added to the diesel (fire point and calorific value) at Three different volume concentrations i.e. 10, 20, &30 of Biodiesel and to blend the Biodiesel with 2-Methyltetrahydrofuraneto study the emission levels.
