“…NOx, CO2 emissions and exhaust temperature are found to be more, while PM and smoke emissions are less for methyl soyate when compared to diesel. [4] reviewed the effects of alternative fuels on the combustion characteristics and emission products from diesel engines, it has been observed from several papers that there is significant reduction of regular gas and PM emissions by the use of alcohol/diesel dual fuel, while unregulated emissions such as methanol, ethanol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, ketone, have increased compared to those from diesel fuel. [5] investigated low temperature combustion and emission characteristics of four different fuels at different EGR ratios.…”

Utilization of renewable alcohols as fuel grabbed the attention of the researchers as they can be extracted from lignocellulosic bio-mass. In the present work the influence of EGR rate and injection timing on the performance and emission characteristics of a single cylinder, four stroke, direct injection diesel engine has been experimentally investigated using D70B30 (70% diesel and 30% butanol) blend as fuel. To conduct this study, we recorded the combustion and emission characteristics under nine operating conditions at three EGR rates (i.e. 10%, 20% and 30%) and three injection timings (i.e. 21°CA bTDC, 23°CA bTDC and 25°CA bTDC) under peak load at 5.3 bmep. Results indicate that at same EGR rate and injection timing D70B30 blend show 15% and 20% reduction in NO x and smoke density respectively. When the EGR rate is increased there is a significant reduction in NOx emission with heavy penalty in smoke emission. Advancing the injection timing reduced the smoke emission by 60% and 22% increase in NOx concentration also gave better combustion behavior due to prolonged ignition delay. The statistical analysis is significant and engine running with n-butanol/diesel blend under 21°bTDC and 30% EGR had shown positive emission reduction. At 21°bTDC and 30% engine undergoes Low Temperature Combustion (LTC). It may be concluded that n-butanol can be an excellent substitute for fossil diesel and long term durability tests have to be carried out for its commercial usage in the conventional diesel engines.

“…The developed blend exhibits quite high cylinder pressure but the ignition of the fuel gets decreased owing to the blended fuel. [18] presented a survey to highlight the influence of alcohol, natural gas, bio-diesel and dimethyl ether on combustion properties and discharge substance of diesel engine. The review suggests that alternative fuel can lead to a better emission control.…”

This project is focussed on lowering the emission of toxic gases such as Hydrocarbons (HC), Carbon monoxide (CO) and Nitrous oxide (NO X ) from the IC engines of automotive vehicles released as a result of combustion of the fuel thereby reducing the environment pollution. The discharge of toxic substances during the combustion in the automotive vehicles can be reduced by noble metal based catalytic converters which convert toxic CO and HC gases to CO 2 and H 2 O respectively. In order to overcome the issues related to the use of noble metals, a novel method utilizing the natural liquids for minimizing the emission level is suggested. The pH values of natural fluids such as water, banana tree extract, cow urine and aloe vera were tested and then injected into silencer as separate liquid. Finally it is suggested to use the mixture of cow urine and banana tree extract to produce a significant reduction in emission of all the exhaust gases.

“…Thus, emissions from the production of biodiesel do not endanger human health and are also more environmentally friendly. Moreover, biodiesel has a lower amount of cetane than diesel fuel which further improves engine combustion performance 15,16 . Shirneshan et al 2016 investigated the use of artificial bee cloning algorithm to optimize engine performance and fuel mix properties biodiesel and diesel , engine speed and engine load.…”
