In order to improve the environmental performance of diesel engines, the use of renewable energy sources such as biofuels is justified. The factors influencing the processes of fuel combustion and issues allowing to properly provide the necessary conditions for the combustion of biofuels in the combustion chamber of diesel are considered. As a result of experimental studies developed biofuel for diesel engine consisting of methanol and methyl ester of rapeseed oil. Experimental studies of the efficiency and environmental performance of the diesel engine on this biofuel have been carried out.
