2. Diesel fuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_fuel

   Diesel fuel has many colloquial names; most commonly, it is simply referred to as diesel. In the United Kingdom, diesel fuel for road use is commonly called diesel or sometimes white diesel if required to differentiate it from a reduced-tax agricultural-only product containing an identifying coloured dye known as red diesel.

3. Diesel engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_engine

   Diesel engine built by Langen & Wolf under licence, 1898 1952 Shell Oil film showing the development of the diesel engine from 1877. The diesel engine, named after Rudolf Diesel, is an internal combustion engine in which ignition of the fuel is caused by the elevated temperature of the air in the cylinder due to mechanical compression; thus, the diesel engine is called a compression-ignition ...

4. Cetane number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cetane_number

   Cetane number ( cetane rating) ( CN) is an indicator of the combustion speed of diesel fuel and compression needed for ignition. It plays a similar role for diesel as octane rating does for gasoline. The CN is an important factor in determining the quality of diesel fuel, but not the only one; other measurements of diesel fuel's quality include ...

5. E-diesel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-diesel

   E-diesel is a synthetic diesel fuel for use in automobiles. Currently, e-diesel is created at two sites: by an Audi research facility Germany in partnership with a company named Sunfire, and in Texas. The fuel is created from carbon dioxide, water, and electricity with a process powered by renewable energy sources to create a liquid energy ...

6. Two-stroke diesel engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_diesel_engine

   A two-stroke diesel engine is a diesel engine that uses compression ignition in a two-stroke combustion cycle. It was invented by Hugo Güldner in 1899. [1] In compression ignition, air is first compressed and heated; fuel is then injected into the cylinder, causing it to self-ignite. This delivers a power stroke each time the piston rises and ...

7. Biodiesel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biodiesel

   C16 and C18 diesel fuels arise by hydrogenolysis of the saturated fat. Biodiesel is a renewable biofuel, a form of diesel fuel, derived from biological sources like vegetable oils, animal fats, or recycled greases, and consisting of long-chain fatty acid esters. It is typically made from fats.
