Conservation initiatives and energy saving as well as the use of alternative energy sources began to be adopted by the government and society in the 70s. Biodiesel is a clean-burning fuel, renewable, biodegradable and environmentally friendly. The use of biodiesel in conventional diesel engine results in substantial reduction of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and particulate matter, and a lower fuel consumption and an excellent reputation for durability of these engines. The use of B10 will probably be implemented only in 2015, however, this mixture is still under study for this application. Therefore, in this paper have been studies performance of an engine powered diesel generator with partial mixing of biodiesel (B10), working in different moments with mineral diesel and blends of biofuel.
