obtained from a variety of non-renewable sources </span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">is</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> considered unsustainable. Various fossil fuels,
such as petroleum, coal, and natural gas, are among these sources. The
combustion of fossil fuels resulted in the generation of greenhouse gases,
which increased the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Global warming
and ozone layer degradation are the negative consequences. In a country like
India, where consumable oils are still imported, it is sense to look at the
possibility of using such unpalatable oils in CI engines that arenĄ¯t often
utilized as cooking oil. Palm oil is a vegetable oil obtained from the monocarp
of the oil palmĄ¯s crop. The main goal is to pro</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">vide a low-cost, high-performance alternative to diesel. The
possibility o</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">f palm oil as a realistic, modest, and effective hotspot
for the generation of biodiesel is investigated in this research. The article
is focused on the comparison of palm oil and diesel in terms of
characteristics.
