Biodiesel is a standout amongst the most encouraging sustainable, elective and ecologically well disposed bio fuels that can be utilized in diesel engine without any modification. The exploratory work has been led on a four-chamber, four - stroke, direct infusion (DI) diesel motor. In this examination, biodiesel (Produced from cotton seed oil by transesterification procedure) and typical diesel have been utilized as a reference fuel. In this examination, two diverse nanoparticle fuel added substances in particular MgO2 and CeO2 were added to biodiesel at the option measurement of 250 and 500ppm. An experimental analysis of performance and emission for present of metal oxide nano-particles with cotton seed biodiesel used as a fuel in CI diesel engine and also optimized the quantity of dosing metal oxide can be effective for better performance. In this investigation could be done with present and absent of metal oxide additives are likewise displayed. The present of MgO2 nano-particles has been increased the flash point and viscosity of the biodiesel. It was clearly noticed that the Expansion of MgO2 nanoparicles resulted lower HC and NOx outflows.


In this present work, experiments were conducted on a VCR Diesel engine with diesel, Neem oil biodiesel and Di-ethyl ether mixed with neem oil biodiesel. The performance and emission characteristics were evaluated and compared. The study shown that the Brake thermal efficiency increased and the brake specific fuel consumption reduced with B10 blend of neem oil biodiesel compared to diesel. The emissions of CO, CO2 were reduced but HC and smoke were increased with the use of biodiesel than diesel. The addition of Diethyl Ether (DEE) further improved the performance and decreased the emissions of CO and CO2 of the engine at B20DEE20 blend compared to other blends of biodiesel and diesel.
