Abstract

Increase in the crude oil price and the demand for crude oil in the non-petroleum producing countries forces them to search for an alternative source of fuel to use. It has been found that the biodiesel obtained from the vegetable oils blended with diesel can work in the Compression Ignition engine without any modification up to certain volumetric composition. Mustard oil was extracted from the plants of Brassica juncea was taken for the preparation of biodiesel by trans-esterification method. The prepared mustard oil biodiesel was blended with diesel in the ratio of 5, 10, and 15% and added with Al2O3 nanoparticles as an additive. The prepared samples were tested in a constant speed CI engine by varying the load to compare its performance and emission characteristics with that of diesel. It has been found from the results that the carbon monoxide (CO) and Hydro Carbon (HC) and smoke emissions were decreased and the Nitrogen Oxides (N0X) emissions were increased with an increase in the blend. The presence of the oxygen content in the blend is the reason for the enhancement of the combustion process and the reduction of the HC, CO, and smoke emissions. Further, the attempt to reduce the N0X emissions was carried out with the help of the 10% of EGR.
