The subject of the proposed project is the research on the possibility to substitute liquid fuels from crude oil by liquid fuels from renewable sources available in the Czech Republic, i.e. namely vegetable oils. In the project, tests will be performed to compare properties of liquid vegetable-oil-based fuels and combustion tests at a burner testing facility located in the faculty of the applicant. Expected results of the project include:Acquisition of knowledge about different combustion behavior of fuel oils from crude oil and from vegetables. Evaluation of the suitability of different vegetable oils and intermediate products from their production processes, for combustion in small and medium-sized stationary combustion units. Elaboration of the recommendations for possible project for installation of modified industrial liquid fuel burner with nominal heat duty up to 1000kW in pilot industrial combustion unit. (en)
