Comparison of carbonyl compound emissions from a diesel engine generator fueled with blends of n-butanol, biodiesel and diesel

TL;DR: In this article, the emissions of CBCs and regulated traditional pollutants that are produced from diesel engine combustion in idle mode were compared with premium diesel fuels in terms of their emissions, and it was shown that using 10 vol.% butanol in biodiesel blends resulted in a decrease of FOR (formaldehyde) and ACE (acetaldehyde) formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of carbonyl compound emissions from a non-road machinery diesel engine fueled with a methanol/diesel blend

TL;DR: In this paper, a non-road machinery diesel engine running on diesel fuel (DF) or methanol-diesel blend fuel (M/DF) was investigated under a series of steady-state operating conditions.

Emission evaluation of a diesel engine generator operating with a proportion of isobutanol as a fuel additive in biodiesel blends

TL;DR: In this article, the emissions of carbonyl compounds and regulated pollutants that are produced from diesel engine combustion in idle mode were investigated, and the effect of the biodiesel proportion in the blends of diesel, biodiesel, isobutanol, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxide (NO X ), and particulate matters (PMs) were decreased by an average of 3.45, 32.5, and 38.5 vol%, respectively.

Assessment of diesel engine combustion, performance and emission characteristics fuelled with dual fuel blends

TL;DR: In this paper, aamla seed oil biodiesel (AB) and eucalyptus oil (EU) blends were used as fuels for CI engine, results demonstrated that use of dual fuel can give satisfactory performance in a standard diesel engine without any tweaking in the engine.

The effect of alcohol fumigation on diesel engine performance and emissions

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of ethanol fumigation (i.e., the addition of ethanol to the intake air manifold) and ethanol-diesel fuel blends on the performance and emissions of a single cylinder diesel engine have been investigated experimentally and compared.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emission reduction potential of using ethanol–biodiesel–diesel fuel blend on a heavy-duty diesel engine

TL;DR: In this article, the emission characteristics of a three compounds oxygenated diesel fuel blend (BE-diesel), on a Cummins-4B diesel engine were analyzed and the results showed a significant reduction in PM emissions and 2-14% increase of NOx emissions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance and combustion characteristics of biodiesel–diesel–methanol blend fuelled engine

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of using methanol as additive to biodiesel-diesel blends on the engine performance, emissions and combustion characteristics of a direct injection diesel engine under variable operating conditions were evaluated.

Green energy: Water-containing acetone–butanol–ethanol diesel blends fueled in diesel engines

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of water-containing ABE-diesel blends were investigated to simulate the use of ABE fermentation products without dehydration and no addition of surfactants, and it was found that ABE20W0.5 enhanced brake thermal efficiencies (BTE) by 3.26-8.56%.

Study on performance and emissions of a passenger-car diesel engine fueled with butanol–diesel blends

TL;DR: In this article, a high-speed direct injection (DI) diesel engine for passenger-car application for varied loads at two representative engine speeds was tested, and the results showed that butanol-diesel blends slightly increased combustion pressure and accelerated burning rate.
