The results of experimental research on ignition and liquid biofuel drops combustion characteristics are presented. The main fuel components used are rapeseed oil, water, and sawdust. The key recorded process characteristics are minimum ignition temperature, gas phase and heterogeneous combustion delay time, and duration of combustion. The conditions for efficient and safe initiation of combustion of promising liquid biofuels are determined. The advantages of biofuel use over suspension fuels based on conventional energy resources and wastes of their processing and enrichment are ascertained.
