Because of superior oxygen storage and release capability, Ce‐based catalysts were widely used in the oxidation reaction, while seldomly mentioned in waste plastics combustion. Herein, Ce0.8Zr0.2O2 catalysts were prepared by the complexed hydrothermal method (CeZr(C)), oxalic acid gel method (CeZr(O)), and hydrothermal method (CeZr(N)); and then, used in PE (polyethylene) combustion. Compared with PE noncatalytic combustion that exhibited an initial combustion temperature of 269 °C, CeZr(C) slightly reduced the initial combustion temperature to 263 °C, while CeZr(N) and CeZr(O) significantly reduced the initial combustion temperature to 245 and 251 °C, respectively. It was deduced that the activity of CeZr(N) and CeZr(O) in PE catalytic combustion was significantly higher than that of CeZr(C). Based on the systematic characterization, two reaction mechanisms were proposed to explain the excellent performance of CeZr(O) and CeZr(N) in PE combustion: (1) Because of the abundant surface area and O2 adsorption, CeZr(O) enhanced the activation of molecular oxygen and the formation of active oxygen, which was easier to attack C─C/C─H bond and initiate PE combustion than molecular oxygen. (2) Because of the strong acidity, CeZr(N) enhanced the activation of C─C/C─H bond in polymer molecules, which benefited the attack of molecular oxygen, and reduced the reaction temperature.

This study evaluates the performance of biofuels created from triple blends of fossil diesel, sunflower or castor oil (SVOs), and 2-Ethylhexyl Nitrate (EHN), a low-viscosity, high-cetane (LVHC) solvent. EHN reduces the viscosity of SVOs to enable their use in conventional diesel engines without compromising fuel properties. The results show that the power output from these blends is similar to or greater than that of fossil diesel, with comparable fuel consumption. Furthermore, the blends significantly reduce emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) and soot, though NOx emissions are slightly higher due to the nitrogen content in EHN. However, NOx levels remain within permissible limits. The substitution of fossil diesel could be further enhanced if EHN were produced using green hydrogen and lignocellulosic biomass, making it a renewable and sustainable biofuel component. These findings support the potential of EHN/SVO biofuel blends to replace a significant portion of fossil diesel in conventional diesel engines while maintaining performance and reducing harmful emissions, except for a slight increase in NOx.
