Abstract: This paper presents the results obtained in investigation on energy density of bio-fuels. There are analyzed five kinds of bio-fuel candidates like sunflower oil, waste used oil and canola oil.. Measuring of energy density (heat of combustion) of bio-fuels was done using the Parr oxygen bomb calorimeter. There are presented the sample preparation, the testing procedure, the comparative results on the mixed and separated fuels and also the conclusions of the experiment. Even the energy density of bio-fuels studied decreases after mixing with diesel fuel, the fuels could be effectively used for energy generation by car engines.
