“…On the other hand, bioethanol concentrations of 15% and 20% required higher fuel mass to generate the engine power at the same speed rotation due to the low energy content in bioethanol fuel [35]. Thermal efficiency is the ratio of engine power produced to the energy input of fuel, converted through the combustion process [34]. The higher thermal efficiency is obtained in a cycle, the greater thermal energy can be converted to mechanical energy.…”

Bioethanol is a clean fuel, renewable energy source that can be used in place of fossil fuels. Bioethanol has similar characteristics to gasoline fuel, making it an excellent alternative fuel for SI engines, contributing to the reduction of air pollution, the increased use of biofuels, and the removal of fossil fuel consumption. Analysis of the SI engine performance using gasoline fuel with an octane rating of 90 and gasoline-bioethanol blends containing up to 20% bioethanol concentration, each fuel blended at 5% by volume fraction. The purpose of this study is to present the experimental results for a spark ignition (SI) engine with a single injector that operates by using a gasoline-bioethanol blend as fuel. Analysis of the SI engine performance by using gasoline fuel with an octane rating of 90 and gasoline-bioethanol blends containing up to 20% bioethanol concentration. Each fuel was blended with bioethanol at an interval of 5% by volume fraction. The test was conducted on an SI engine with a capacity of 1500 cc, four cylinders, and a single injector was used to distribute fuel to each cylinder through the intake manifold. The shaft of the engine is connected to a 75 kW of eddy current dynamometer shaft to measure the engine torque. The engine load is controlled using an interface computer system. Load on an engine is done by increasing braking on the dynamometer, and real-time signals from the sensors are recorded. Each fuel sample is operated at full load or wide-open throttle (WOT) at speeds ranging from 1000 to 5500 revolutions per minute (rpm). The experiments show that adding bioethanol to gasoline fuel can have a significant effect on the single injector SI engine performance. When the bioethanol concentration of 10% (E10) by volume is used, it is possible to maintain engine power with lower fuel consumption or lower the energy supply to the engine cylinder, thereby increasing the thermal efficiency of the single-injector SI engine by 6.33% compared to gasoline fuel.

Two factors that have been manipulating automobile industries and scientific communities for the study of alternative fuel/energy sources and its uses for the automobiles are depletion of oil resources and various other environmental factors. In these circumstances, some of the alternative fuel sources will have major benefits fitting into our world of automobile at present time due to their very different characteristic traits but some will also have a lot of challenging disadvantages again due to their distinct character traits. The main issue raised at the present moment is the making of the perfect choice of the alternative fuel in terms of present conditions. For the proper demarcation and determination of the perfect alternative fuel, it is essential to know the characteristics of the energy types along with their advantages and disadvantages. In this paper, a qualitative analysis of the very distinct available alternative fuels is available which are best suited for the current scenario of India (every fact and figure and demonstrations are made keeping in mind of the factor concerning the stakes and factors working in India).

“…Because ethanol-gasoline and methanol-gasoline mixtures have different characteristics, the combustion system is altered. Due to these factors, it is difficult to pinpoint the principles of how ethanol or methanol impacts emissions [ 12 ]. Low-ethanol mixes with less than 20% ethanol had no obvious effect on engine efficiency or torque, but the performance of the engine decreased when the proportion of blending was increased [ 13 ].…”

Climate change, clean air, renewable energy, nontoxic surroundings, and the opportunity to live in a healthy community are just few of the issues that environmental sustainability addresses. To improve environmental health and quality of life, several researchers have turned their attention to alternative energy sources like ethanol and oxyhydrogen. In latest years, significant progress has been made in the development of ethanol and hydrogen as clean energy sources. A higher octane rating is achieved by mixing ethanol with gasoline rather than using regular gasoline. A novel mix of oxyhydrogen, ethanol, and gasoline is ecologically friendly while simultaneously increasing the performance of gasoline engines. In this study, a nanoparticle-coated piston on a low heat rejection gasoline engine fuelled by an ethanol-gasoline mix with oxyhydrogen addition was investigated. It has been evaluated that thermal efficiency improved by up to 25% while fuel consumption can be reduced by up to 28% on a volume basis compared to the baseline engine. Furthermore, the decrease in harmful carbon monoxide reached around 10%, and the reduction in unburned hydrocarbon emissions reached 18%.
