“…This is attributed to the redox nature of the nanoparticle. Vairamuthu et al [27] performed an experimental investigation on diesel engine using cerium oxide nanoparticle added with the blend of Calophyllum inophyllum biodiesel and diesel as fuel for various modified nozzle geometries. It was pointed out that the addition of cerium oxide nanoparticle beyond 40 ppm to the fuel resulted in inferior performance compared to diesel fuel.…”

“…It was found that emissions such as hydrocarbon and Nox reduced considerably with improved brake thermal efficiency (BTE) and reduced brake specific fuel consumption with NH5 (five holes and Ø = 0.240 mm). In these tests, CON acted both as an oxidation and reducing catalyst, which provided the oxygen for the oxidation of CO and absorbed oxygen to reduce the formation of Nox [121]. Modified nozzle configuration (six holes) reduced the Nox emissions for a B20 biodiesel-diesel blend in a diesel engine.…”

The ever-increasing demand for transport is sustained by internal combustion (IC) engines. The demand for transport energy is large and continuously increasing across the globe. Though there are few alternative options emerging that may eliminate the IC engine, they are in a developing stage, meaning the burden of transportation has to be borne by IC engines until at least the near future. Hence, IC engines continue to be the prime mechanism to sustain transportation in general. However, the scarcity of fossil fuels and its rising prices have forced nations to look for alternate fuels. Biodiesel has been emerged as the replacement of diesel as fuel for diesel engines. The use of biodiesel in the existing diesel engine is not that efficient when it is compared with diesel run engine. Therefore, the biodiesel engine must be suitably improved in its design and developments pertaining to the intake manifold, fuel injection system, combustion chamber and exhaust manifold to get the maximum power output, improved brake thermal efficiency with reduced fuel consumption and exhaust emissions that are compatible with international standards. This paper reviews the efforts put by different researchers in modifying the engine components and systems to develop a diesel engine run on biodiesel for better performance, progressive combustion and improved emissions.

“…3-4% increase in the brake thermal efficiency of the fluid containing 0.4% Ferro fluid with diesel. V. Arul Mozhi Selvan et al [10] carries the performance test on single cylinder water cooled variable compression ratio diesel engine for diesel and ethanol-diesel-biodiesel blend with cerium oxide nanoparticle as fuel additive in 25 ppm concentration. By adding the biodiesel the phase separation of diesel and biodiesel were prevented.…”

The main objective of paper is the need to reduce emission which is major impulse to the development of alternative fuel; biodiesel has been developed as an alternative fuel for C.I. engine but it show slightly lower performance and reduction in SO X , CO, HC, CO 2 emissions as compare with diesel. But due to higher oxygen contain in biodiesel the formation of NO X was observed higher. Nano-fuels have shown better improvement in combustion, performance and emission characteristics of CI engine. The blending of biodiesel increases the thermal efficiency near to that of diesel and also significantly large reduction in NO X is observed.
