CLIMATE CHANGING – BIOFUELS

The main objectives of European climate protection were applied in the Hungarian environmental laws. The national quotas were allocated first in 2005, but the new allocation plan has not been submitted to the EU. It was easy for Hungary to fulfill the Kyoto targets, as at present emission is significantly lower, than it was 1990. The EU energy policy focuses on the promotion of renewable energy sources. In Hungary the renewable energy accounted for 4,6 % of the total use of energy. Nowadays I determined engine brake bench results and emission components using of pressed 5 kind of sunflower oils mixed with diesel oil, 4 kind of rape oils mixed with diesel oil and RME. My tests were performed by meeting requirements of the EU 24 and EU 49 standards with PERKINS 1104C engine type at our College Faculty. In the cause of my tests I put down CO, HC, NOx, CO2 and O2 components of exhaust gases and determined smoking too.
