A comparative review of performance and emission characteristics of diesel engine using eucalyptus-biodiesel blend

Sivakumar Ellappan et al.

Summary: This review highlights the use of eucalyptus oil as a primary biodiesel and biodiesel as a secondary fuel in low heat rejection engines to improve brake thermal efficiency and reduce emissions. The higher density and cetane index of eucalyptus oil compared to diesel are addressed by adding diethyl ether to the blend. The study aims to enhance the BTE equivalent and decrease emissions compared to traditional diesel fuel.

Rice bran oil-based biodiesel as a promising renewable fuel alternative to petrodiesel: A review

Anh Tuan Hoang et al.

Summary: The article explores the production of biofuels from free fatty acid-rich rice bran oil and evaluates its application in diesel engines in terms of effectiveness and economic feasibility. Research suggests that a blend of 20% rice bran oil biodiesel and 80% petrodiesel is the most optimal composition considering both technical and economic aspects.

Performance, combustion and emission characteristics of a DI-CI diesel engine fueled with corn oil methyl ester biodiesel blends

Ravishankar Sathyamurthy et al.

Summary: Results of the study showed that using B10 biodiesel blend significantly improved engine performance, with a maximum engine efficiency of 33.98%, lower than neat diesel. The brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) for diesel engine using B10 biodiesel blend increased by only 2%, while using B20 and B30, BSFC increased to about 4% and 6%, respectively.

Performance and emission analysis on the effect of exhaust gas recirculation in a tractor diesel engine using pine oil and soapnut oil methyl ester

V. Venkatesan et al.

Summary: The study investigated the use of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) technique to reduce NOx emissions in compression ignition engines, using blends of pine oil - soapnut oil methyl ester and diesel - soapnut oil methyl ester in a twin cylinder off-road vehicle diesel engine. The results showed significant reductions in carbon monoxide and unburnt hydrocarbon emissions with the use of hybrid biofuel blends under different operating conditions.

Influence of fish oil and waste cooking oil as post mixed binary biodiesel blends on performance improvement and emission reduction in diesel engine

S. K. Nayak et al.

Summary: The rapid depletion of natural and non-renewable resources poses a serious threat to the environment and humanity, prompting researchers to explore alternative solutions. This paper examines the performance, combustion, and emissions of a diesel engine using fish oil biodiesel and waste palm cooking oil biodiesel, with results showing similarities to diesel fuel but with higher fuel consumption and lower thermal efficiency. Additionally, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon, and smoke intensity decrease while nitrogen oxide increases, indicating a trade-off for better environmental sustainability and security.

Impact of diesel e Algae biodiesel- Anhydrous Ethanol blends on the performance of CI engines

Velmurugan Kulanthaivel et al.

Summary: Green biofuels like ethanol and biodiesel are being considered as potential solutions to reduce pollutant emissions and decrease society's reliance on fossil fuels. Experimental evaluations on ternary blends of diesel, biodiesel, and ethanol in a diesel engine show improvements in engine performance, optimization of fuel injection timing, and effects of ethanol on combustion delay. Specific conditions of rotation, torque, and fuel injection moments are considered to determine the effects of different ethanol proportions on efficiency in the engine supplied with blends.
