Given the energy crisis, fossil fuel reserves crisis, climate mitigation, and energy efficiency increase, scientists have embarked on producing alternative fuels such as the biodiesel. This study was conducted to investigate the feasibility of biodiesel production from safflower oil using the ultrasonic system, and to evaluate the produced fuel using a diesel power generator. In this study, the effects of alcohol-to-oil molar ratio, ultrasound power (W), catalyst concentration (w/w %), and the reaction time (min) on methyl ester yield were investigated. By increasing the molar ratio to a point between the ratios 4:1 and 6:1, the conversion rate first increases 11.42%, and then it remains unchanged from the point 6 to 8. As the ultrasonic power increases, the rate of conversion increases incrementally. The optimization was obtained at 7.02 molar ratio, 160 W ultrasound power, 0.95 (w/w%) catalyst concentration, and 8.47 min reaction time. The results showed that the brake torque and broke power increased when the amount of biodiesel in fuel increased from B0 to B50. The results showed that CO emissions decreased and NOx increased when there was an increase of amount of biodiesel.

考虑到能源危机，化石燃料储备危机，气候缓解和能源效率提高，科学家已经着手生产替代燃料，例如生物柴油。进行这项研究以调查使用超声系统从红花油生产生物柴油的可行性，并使用柴油发电机评估所产生的燃料。在这项研究中，研究了醇与油的摩尔比，超声功率（W），催化剂浓度（w / w％）和反应时间（min）对甲酯收率的影响。通过将摩尔比增加到比率4：1和6：1之间的一个点，转换率首先增加11.42％，然后从点6到8保持不变。随着超声功率的增加，转换率增加逐步地。优化是在7。摩尔比为O 2，超声功率为160 W，催化剂浓度为0.95（w / w％），反应时间为8.47分钟。结果表明，当燃料中生物柴油的含量从B0增加到B50时，制动扭矩和制动功率增加。结果表明，随着生物柴油量的增加，CO排放量减少，NOx排放量增加。
