Biodiesel as an alternative fuel for diesel engine has a great possibility to solve the problem such as air pollution caused by exhaust gas emission of the automobile. In this study, the usability of new concept (non-esterfication) biodiesel fuel as alternative fuel is investigated in indirect injection diesel engine. New concept biodiesel fuel has no glycerin generated by esterfication process and reduces the 20 percent of cost because no use methanol in the production process. Experiments were conducted by using the four blends with different volumetic percentage of biodiesel (0, 20, 50 and 100) in baseline diesel fuel. The smoke emission of biodiesel fuel was reduced in comparison with diesel fuel, but power, torque and brake specific energy consumption was similar to diesel fuel.
