The technical and environmental parameters of the diesel internal combustion engine using two new samples of biofuels SAMPLE 1 and SAMPLE 2 were evaluated in this paper. SAMPLE 1 and SAMPLE 2 biofuels were tested on a LOMBARDINI LDW 502 internal combustion engine, which was loaded on a dynamometer according to the applicable national and international standards. This method can also be applied to marine engines and contribute to a higher level of marine ecology. The result of the testing was to determine the impact of tested biofuels on the technical parameters engine power and torque and the environmental parameters emissions of smoke, nitrogen oxides, and economy of the internal combustion engine-specific fuel consumption. From the measured data, another parameter was calculated, such as the injected fuel dose and the overall efficiency of the internal combustion engine. The results show that the new samples of SAMPLE 1 and SAMPLE 2 biofuels tested could be a suitable alternative to standard diesel.
