Abstract (en)

One of the problems encountered in producing biofuels from usual materials is the raw material suitable for food production. To tackle this, it is necessary to look for alternatives. False flax (Camelina sativa) raw material is not suitable for food production industry. As research shows this mixture has almost the same motor - ecological properties as standardized RME biofuel mixture and fossil diesel fuel, and in some cases, significant advantage are observed. One of the main energy parameters - overall efficiency factor of the engine remains close as well as RME and mineral diesel.
