Investigation of Dual Fuel with Bipartite Additives in CI Engine

Abstract

Extend the longevity of diesel in the world there is a need for identify ing alternatives sources. Biodiesel is the one of the best alternatives to overcome the fuel crises, day to day fuel price arise and environment emission concerns. In this study, the performance of the engine and emission has been studied. The raw non-edible waste cooking oil and Jatropha oils are equally blended 1:1 ratio is used to convert the biodiesel with methanol and alkaline catalyst KOH (Potassium Hydroxide) by transesterification process. Evaluated the physical properties of WJB value as per ASTM Standards. Nano additives magnesium oxide and graphene oxide were added 2:1 ratio mixed with biodiesel and diesel blend. The 4-stroke diesel engine used to find emission and performance of the bio-diesel blend WJB10, WJB20, WJB30,WJB40 and compared with mean diesel. The performance test ,combustion test and emission result were found lesser fuel consumption with brake thermal efficiency and reduced HC,CO,CO2 and NOx in WJB30 fuel blend compared to diesel.
