A detailed investigation of the combustion characteristics of a DI diesel engine fuelled with plastic oil and rice bran methyl ester

An experimental study on the performance combustion and emission characteristics on diesel: Simarouba glauca biodiesel blended fuel for diesel engine with ethanol as additive

“…The higher ignition delay in the biodiesel results in the accumulation of a large quantity of air-fuel mixture throughout the rapid combustion period producing higher heat release. Similar results were also obtained by another researcher Viswanath et al [30].…”

Purification technology for renewable production of fuel from methanolysis of waste sunflower oil in the presence of high silica zeolite beta

“…Biodiesel as a biofuel consists of mono alkyl esters which are attained by trans-esterification of animal fat or plant oil with alcohols of short chain such as ethanol or methanol (2). Methanolysis or transesterification is considered as the best technique for reducing viscosity of plant oils (3). However, waste oil is considerably cheaper than pure refined vegetable oils; it is noteworthy that disposal of waste materials like waste cooking may cause health-related risks and the environmental risks (4,5).…”

Effects of EGR rates on combustion and emission characteristics in a diesel engine with n-butanol/PODE3-4/diesel blends

“…In recent years, with aggravating energy consumption and challenging fuel consumption regulations, the attention is increasingly focused on exploring renewable clean alternative fuels, such as alcohols [5][6][7], ethers [8][9][10], esters [11][12][13], and natural gas [14,15]. As a renewable substitute for diesel, the n-butanol has drawn extensive interest owing to its prominent fuel properties [16][17][18] compared to ethanol and methanol.…”
