“…At peak load circumstances with 2400 revolutions per minute, the cylinder pressure loss for the blends D80S20 and D60S40 was reduced by 9.8% and 18.0%, respectively, as compared to diesel. In a dual-fuel engine, rapid combustion generates more heat, which in turn boosts the cylinder pressure and temperature (Zandie et al 2023 ; Abishek et al 2024 ). At lower loads, the fuel mixture has a tendency to be rich, which leads to incomplete combustion.…”

This article presents the outcomes of a research study focused on optimizing the performance of soybean biofuel blends derived from soybean seeds specifically for urban medium-duty commercial vehicles. The study took into consideration elements such as production capacity, economics and assumed engine characteristics. For the purpose of predicting performance, combustion and emission characteristics, an artificial intelligence approach that has been trained using experimental data is used. At full load, the brake thermal efficiency (BTE) dropped as engine speed increased for biofuel and diesel fuel mixes, but brake-specific fuel consumption (BSFC) increased. The BSFC increased by 11.9% when diesel compared to using biofuel with diesel blends. The mixes cut both maximum cylinder pressure and $${{\text{NO}}}_{{\text{x}}}$$ NO x emissions. The biofuel-diesel fuel proved more successful, with maximum reduction of 9.8% and 22.2 at rpm, respectively. The biofuel and diesel blend significantly improved carbon dioxide ($${{\text{CO}}}_{2}$$ CO 2 ) and smoke emissions. The biofuel blends offer significant advantages by decreeing exhaust pollutants and enhancing engine performance. Graphical Abstract
