The waste oil burner / Adnan Yusoff

The physical phenomena and experimental studies have been carried out to determine the characteristics of a burner using waste oil as fuel. The objective of this project is to burn waste oil that is left over cooking oil and used lubricant oil. The long term objective is to use the heat or energy pr...

Sanitary engineering The physical phenomena and experimental studies have been carried out to determine the characteristics of a burner using waste oil as fuel. The objective of this project is to burn waste oil that is left over cooking oil and used lubricant oil. The long term objective is to use the heat or energy produce from the burning process for other purpose such as for water heater. But the long term objective will be carried out by next student project. The objective is only to burn the waste oil. Waste oils such as cooking oil or lubricant oil is one of the elements that pollute the environment. So, to minimize this problem, the burner was design with a hope to minimise this problem. Using of the Babington atomizer concept, oil will be atomize before burning it. The Babington atomizer concept has been used because the waste oil contains water, dirt, or other particulate matter. If other concepts of atomizer using are used, it was too difficult to burn the waste oil. The atomization process is to change liquid oil into small particles. Small particle form of oil is easy to burn. High pressure compress air is applied to give high velocity of air to atomize the waste oil. The oil is dropped at Babington atomizer and it wills from a surface tension, the thin film surface of oil is formed. Then high pressure of air is blown through this film of oil. In the process, the waste oil will change into vary small particle of oil. A flame will be supplied to give a required heat for the small particle of the oil start burning. Once if started it continue burning without applying any a heat source. During the burning process, the pressure and temperature data will be collected and analyses will be doing base on the burning process. 2004 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/76958/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/76958/1/76958.pdf text en public degree Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Mechanical Engineering Abd.
