liquid biofuels are one of the most widely utilized today, bioethanol and biodiesel are essential to the development and advancement of the industry. In this research, an experimental investigation of the effects of biofuel blends with diesel on pollutant emissions and combustion characteristics of a 350-kW industrial burner. Tested fuel blends were D100, D50B50 (50% diesel and 50% biodiesel by volume), D50B50E15 (50% diesel, 50% biodiesel, and 15% bioethanol by volume), and D50B50E25 (50% diesel, 50% biodiesel and 25% bioethanol by volume). The equivalence ratio was adjusted to five values by varying the air flow rate and maintaining the fuel flow rate constant at 0.14 l/min.CO, HC, soot, and NOx were measured. Also, flame temperatures were recorded at different positions. The result indicates that utilizing the fuel blends D50B50, D50B50E15, and D50B50E25 reduces CO by (about 19, 69, and 65%), HC by (about 18, 37 and 28%), and smoke opacity emissions by (about 8, 50, and 30%) respectively, compared to diesel fuel. On the other hand, NOx emission significantly rises at D50B50E15 and D50B50E25. In terms of combustion characteristics. Biofuel mixture D50B50, D50B50E15, and D50B50E25 increase exhaust gas temperatures by (about 2, 3 and 1%), and maximum gas flames (about 5, 9 and 4%) respectively, compared to diesel. The ethanol percentage of more than 15% in the blends lowers the maximum flame temperature within the furnace and reduces the length and area of the flame. It is evident from this research that biofuel for industrial burners can produce optimum combustion characteristics and lower emissions.

“…Also, the effect of adding 10% and 20% by volume of bioethanol as an lower alcohol additives to a mixture of WCO biodiesel/diesel#1 on internal combustion engine performance and emissions have been investigated [ 6 ]. The obtained results elucidated that the engine NOx has reduced, while the engine brake power is dramatically increased.…”

The work focuses on studying the solubility and stability of dissolved bioethanol as a fuel additive in different fuel blends of gasoline, diesel, 50% diesel/50% biodiesel. Dissolved ethanol fuel appears as particles with a unique size distribution inside the whole fuel blends, and its stability was measured in this work. Bioethanol dissolved fuel particles stability was improved after blending the bioethanol with 50% diesel/50% biodiesel than pure diesel or pure gasoline fuel alone. The obtained results reveal that the lowest bioethanol particles stability was obtained when commixed with gasoline and the suspended ethanol particles completely accumulated at different concentrations of bioethanol in the fuel blends of 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%, and 12% by volume after 1 h of mixing time. Furthermore, the measured data of the bioethanol particles size distribution reveals that the suspended stability in the diesel blend improve slightly for all bioethanol concentrations of 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30% by volume. While the bioethanol concentrations of 5% show acceptable particles stability and size distribution during the whole experiments time. Obtained results show that bioethanol suspended particles stability was enhanced for 50% diesel/50% biodiesel blend with different bioethanol concentrations of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30% by volume basis. However, the size of the particles increased as the bioethanol concentration rose with the passage of time.

“…In particular, the quest for alternative energy to fossil fuels is ever-increasing, which can be met through a multimodal approach that includes various sources like biodiesel, hydrogen, nuclear energy, etc. [1][2][3][4][5] The concept of circular economy highlights the necessity to adopt green principles to approach a problem with a 360°perspective starting from production and consumption to recycling. 6 Besides adhering to the circular economy principles, it is important that the process of persuading people to use alternative energy sources that should not generate hazardous elements, which otherwise could potentially be an environmental burden in future.…”
