Literature on the combustion of straight vegetable oil in gas turbines
is scarce; only few works have been found that are similar or
closely related to the present study. Habib et al. [28] tested several
vegetable oil-based biodiesels (soy, canola and recycled rapeseed),
an animal-derived biofuel and their 50% blends with Jet A fuel in an
unmodified 30 kW gas turbine. Engine performance and emissions
are reported for all biofuels except for the pure animal fat biofuel
due to its high sooting potential. However, no information is given
about the injection system and fuel injection temperature
