The use of biofuels in the world is increasing due to their economic prices and an energy crisis. Bioethanol is an alternative renewable fuel suitable for use in internal combustion engines. When compared to the octane number of gasoline, this fuel has a relatively high octane number. Another major property is that bioethanol can reduce motor vehicle emissions when compared to fossil fuels. This study aimed to determine the number of exhaust emissions with fuel that uses a mixture of pertalite RON 90 gasoline and bioethanol. The test method uses a loaded engine with three rpm variations, namely 1200, 6000, and 9000 rpm, with exhaust emission measurement parameters consisting of CO2, CO, HC, and NOx. The test used four kinds of bioethanol mixtures, namely bioethanol 5% (E5), bioethanol 10% (E10), bioethanol 15% (E15), and bioethanol 20% (E20), in addition to pure gasoline RON 90 (pertalite). Measurement of exhaust emissions is carried out using an exhaust gas analyzer. The test results show that using a mixture of bioethanol as fuel does not reduce the total amount of exhaust emissions. The proportion of CO2 tends to grow as the bioethanol mixture increases, and vice versa for the percentage of CO. Meanwhile, the proportion of HC reduced as the bioethanol mixture rose, whereas the percentage of NOx increased.

“…As shown in Figure 6, the highest carbon dioxide emissions were achieved by the E60 blend at 8000 RPM, which is considered the optimal result as it exceeds that of E40 (11.5%). Critically, higher blends of ethanol in gasoline cause higher CO2 emissions than gasoline alone (Singh et al, 2016). The fuel gasoline blend bioethanol used alternative fossil fuel to reducing CO2 emissions SI engine combustion (Turner et al, 2011).…”

“…Bahkan beberapa penelitian ternyata etanol juga dapat dibuat dari biomassa lignoselulosa seperti limbah hasil pertanian, perkebunan dan kehutanan [3,4]. Beberapa hasil penelitian sebelumnya menunjukan campuran bensin-etanol 30% (E30) dapat meningkatkan torsi dan daya dibandingkan menggunakan bahan bakar bensin murni dan menurunkan emisi gas CO, HC dan NO x [5,6]. Selain itu mengganti bahan bakar bensin menjadi etanol pada motor 4 langkah rasio kompresi 11,2 :1 dengan pengapian maju 5 derajat dapat menaikan daya torsi dan efisensi termal pada kondisi standart [7].…”

The six-stroke spark ignition engine has the potential to be developed as a new alternative to future motor fuel technology. The development of motor vehicles will be directly proportional to the use of rising fossil fuels. It is, therefore, necessary to have renewable alternative fuel, in which one of them is using ethanol fuel. Characteristics of the ethanol fuel are different from fossil fuels so the ignition timing is needed to be modified. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the ignition degree on the performance of a 6-stroke spark-ignition engine fuel using ethanol. This research is worked out directly by experimental and testing on the intended object. The test was carried out on an ethanol-fueled 6-step spark ignition engine with variations in the ignition angle at 24 0 ,26 0 and 28 0. Each variation was tested for a rotation interval of 600 rpm from 2400 rpm to 7200 rpm. The results show that ignition degree greatly affects performance. The ignition angle of 28 0 produced better torque, effective power, effective specific fuel consumption and effective thermal efficiency than those of the ignition degrees at 24 0 and 26 0 (standard angle). This is due to the use of ethanol fuel which has a slower combustion speed. Based on this fact, it is necessary to advance the ignition angle so that the explosive power of the air-fuel mixture is increasing. Low fuel consumption and better effective thermal efficiency were observed for 28 0 ignition degrees compared to 24 0 and 26 0 ignition degrees.
