“…The figure clearly indicates that biodiesel blends emit more CO 2 than diesel fuel. This is because biodiesel contains a significantly high amount of oxygen and has a lower C:H ratio in comparison to diesel [ 41 ]. On average 13.7%, 22.69%, 34.6%, and 38.3%, increase in CO 2 emissions were achieved for B 5 , B 10 , B 15 , and B 20 as compared to diesel fuel [ 37 ].…”

“…Various ratios of water, surfactants and hydrophilic-lipophylic balance have been used in 10% Poison nut biodiesel + 10% Castor biodiesel + 80% diesel in which water concentration – 5%, surfactants – 2% and hydrophilic-lipophylic – 5.3% shows better engine characteristics. 19 Also, Poison nut biodiesel shows reduction of NO x and CO to 5 to 10% and 10 to 40% respectively when tested in diesel engine at higher load. 20 Considering all the characteristics of Alexandrian laurel and Poison nut biodiesel, this research uses the blending of above said feedstock at equal proportions which has not been focused by any other studies.…”

To compensate the oil demand and pollution, scientists explore biodiesel as a pollution free alternate energy. But depending on one particular species of feedstock will lead to its extinction like diesel. For this intent, this research proposes a novelty on blending of binary non-edible high oil yielding species. As biodiesel is a natural constituent with elevated oxygen content, a stability analysis has to be performed to diminish its rapid decay. For stabilizing fuel properties synthetic antioxidants have been involved as inhibitors. Previous studies have been performed on the stability analysis individually as oxidation, thermal and storage stability without analyzing them mutually. This research fills the key gap by deeper mutual stability analysis, as the output parameters of these three stabilities are interrelated. Few samples have shown best stability output parameters which challenges in narrowing the best blend. To face this task, a multi objective optimization study has been done. NOx emission has been reduced with the aid of antioxidants as a twin reward. Two novel assessment tools for validating are, i) FTIR, by which the impact of molecular arrangements on stability variation has been evaluated and ii) Using Infrared Imaging Technique, by which the NOX has been analyzed visually correlating the emission level and engine combustion temperature.

Fossil fuels confront the problem of strategic resource depletion since they have been continuously utilized for more than 200 years and cause serious damages to the ecological environment of the planet. In this work, the transesterification of castor plant oil was utilized to make biodiesel, and castor biodiesel’s physicochemical qualities were assessed. On a single-cylinder, four-stroke, water-cooled agricultural diesel engine, an experimental study was conducted to compare and analyze the engine performance and emission characteristics of diesel and biodiesel blends in various amounts. The B20, B40, B60, and B80 biodiesel blends were evaluated at different engine speeds (1200, 1400, 1600, and 1800 rpm) with a constant engine load (50%). According to the experimental findings, the brake thermal efficiency (BTE) declines as the engine speed rises, and the biodiesel fuel blend has a lower brake thermal efficiency (BTE) than diesel fuel because of its higher density and viscosity and lower calorific value. The amount of gasoline required to create power increases as the speed does, and the brake-specific fuel consumption (BSFC) trend is upward. Due to their low calorific value and high viscosity properties, biodiesel blends have a greater brake-specific fuel consumption (BSFC) than diesel. The fuel’s exhaust gas temperature (EGT) has an upward trend with an increased rotational speed. The biodiesel blend’s high cetane number shortens the ignition delay and lowers the exhaust gas temperature (EGT) compared to diesel. A fuel with oxygen added, biodiesel enhances combustion, increases the combustion temperature, speeds up the oxidation process, and lowers carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon emissions. B80 produces the lowest carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon emissions at 1800 rpm, at 0.33%, and 30 ppm, respectively. On the other hand, increased carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions result from a high oxygen concentration. In addition, compared to diesel fuel, biodiesel’s greater combustion temperature causes the creation of increased nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. According to the research findings, a castor biodiesel fuel blend is an excellent alternative fuel for engines since it can be utilized directly without modifying the current engine construction and has good engine and exhaust emission performance.
