Studies on the effect of cetane improver additives on the performance combustion and emission characteristics of diesel waste plastic oil propanol blends in c i engine

Abstract

newlineAlternate fuels obtained from various vegetables, plants, waste cooking oils, newlinewaste plastic oils, bio-alcohols, and animal fats are indispensable fuels used in diesel newlineengines. Petroleum fuels are the major concern in the current and near-future particularly newlinefor those nations that are importing crude oil. Furthermore, it is essential to give attention newlineto alternative energy sources and their biofuel production which replaces conventional newlinepetroleum fuels. As the development of transportation increases, the utilization on newlinealternate fuels necessary for diesel engines to downscale the dependence of petroleum newlineproducts and reduce engine emissions. newlineDiesel engines are renowned for less Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC) and newlinehigher Brake thermal efficiency (BTE).Bio-oils are widely used in diesel engines with newlineand without engine modification for a longer period. Waste plastic oil (WPO) produced newlinefrom waste plastics will undoubtedly handle the ecological pollution and issue of land newlinefilling of waste plastics alongside conquering the fuel crisis. newlineThe raw material cost is zero for WPO production, hence it is hailed as than newlinealternate fuel. Thermochemical conversion, hydrocracking, and catalytic conversion are newlinethe widely used methods to produce waste plastic oils. The thermochemical conversion newlinemethod is viable since i
