Abstract

With the increasing global demand for renewable energy, biodiesel has become a promising alternative to fossil fuels with significant environmental benefits. This article systematically reviews the latest advances in predictive modeling techniques for estimating the characteristics of biodiesel and its impact on diesel engine performance. Various methods for predicting the key performance of biodiesel and the performance and emissions of diesel engines have been summarized. According to the categories of parameters, research cases in recent years have been listed and discussed separately. This review provides a comprehensive overview and serves as a reference for future research and development of biodiesel.
