“…The CO2 emissions of most fuels depend on the carbon content as well as the H/C ratio. A higher H/C ratio results in lower CO2 emissions with increased fuel power, and vice versa (Suiuay et al, 2020). CO2 gas is one of the greenhouse gases.…”

A vast quantity of used engine oil (UEO) is generated every day and poses a major disposal issue in modern society due to the heavy metals and other hazardous contaminants present in it. Due to its high carbon content, UEO has great potential to be utilized as a feedstock for fuel production. The studies on the molecular profile, fuel properties, engine characteristics of gasoline-like fuel produced via cracking of UEO were conducted. The Fe3O4 nanoparticles was synthesized via the one-spot method using iron (III) chloride hexahydrate (FeCl3.6H2O) and iron (II) chloride tetrahydrate (FeCl2.4H2O) as precursors, while the HZSM-5 was synthesized using Al2(SO4)3.18H2O and Na2SiO3 as sources of alumina and silica, respectively. The UEO was cracked in a fixed stainless-steel batch reactor for 1h at varying temperature (350 – 450 ⁰C). The liquid fuel product obtained was analysed for its molecular composition using GC-MS and FTIR, while ASTM standard procedure was used to determine the fuel properties. The results showed that the catalyst is 97.60% selective for gasoline range hydrocarbons, which could be attributed to the high surface area of HZSM-5, which offers more active sites for catalytic cracking. The fuel properties of the produced liquid fuel determined include specific gravity (0.76), kinematic viscosity (1.69 mm2 /Sec), flash point (-42°C), auto ignition temperature (225°C), carbon residue (0.12%), lower heating value (40,443 KJ/kg), and octane number (94). The engine characteristics results of the liquid fuel were comparable to those of commercially available gasoline. Based on the results obtained, it was concluded that the fuel obtained could be used directly in spark-ignition engines without any negative impact on engine performance.

“…The fact that fossil fuels are constantly and rapidly decreasing with the increasing population, together with increasing fuel costs and environmental pollution, have made it essential to find environmentally friendly, cheap and renewable fuels for spark ignition engines [1][2][3]. Recently, biofuels with higher thermal efficiency and lower emissions compared to fossil fuels have been remarkable in the search for alternative fuels [4].…”

“…Suiuay et al [18] evaluated the performance and emissions of exhaust gases of an SI engine fuelled with a mixture of gasoline and pyrolysis bio-oil distillates from the hard resin of Yang (gasoline-like fuel (GLF)). The authors concluded that the GLF showed better results than gasoline for torque, brake thermal efficiency, and brake specific fuel consumption; GLF had lower emissions of CO and unburned hydrocarbons (UHC) and higher emissions of NO x .…”

The partial replacement of fossil fuels by biofuels contributes to a reduction of CO2 emissions, alleviating the greenhouse effect and climate changes. Furthermore, fuels produced from waste biomass materials have no impact on agricultural land use and reduce deposition of such wastes in landfills. In this paper we evaluate the addition of pyrolysis biogasoline (pyrogasoline) as an additive for fossil gasoline. Pyrogasoline was produced from used cooking oils unfit to produce biodiesel. This study was based on a set of engine tests using binary and ternary mixtures of gasoline with 0, 2.5, and 5% pyrogasoline and ethanol. The use of ternary blends of gasoline and two different biofuels was tested with the purpose of achieving optimal combustion conditions and lower emissions, taking advantage of synergistic effects due to the different properties and chemical compositions of those biofuels. The tests were performed on a spark-ignition engine, operated at full load (100% throttle, or WOT—wide open throttle) between 2000 and 6000 rpm, while recording engine performance and exhaust gases pollutants data. Binary mixtures with pyrogasoline did not improve or worsen the engine’s performance, but the ternary mixtures (gasoline + pyrogasoline + ethanol) positively improved the engine’s performance with torque gains between 0.8 and 3.1% compared to gasoline. All fuels presented CO and unburned hydrocarbons emissions below those produced by this type of engine operated under normal (fossil) gasoline. On the other hand, NOx emissions from oxygenated fuels had contradictory behaviour compared to gasoline. If we consider the gains achieved by the torque with the ternary mixtures and reductions in polluting emissions obtained by mixtures with pyrogasoline, a future for this fuel can be foreseen as a partial replacement of fossil gasoline.
