The use of fossil fuel is increasing drastically due to its consumption in all consumer activities. The utility of fossil fuel depleted its existence, degraded the environment and led to reduction in underground carbon resources. Hence the search for alternative fuels is paying attention for making sustainable development, energy conservation, efficiency and environmental preservation. The worldwide reduction of underground carbon resources can be substituted by the bio-fuels. The researchers around the world are finding the alternate fuel that should have the least impact on the environment degradation. This paper aims at finding an alternative for diesel and reducing the pressure on its existing demand. This study aimed at using two types of oil mixtures namely cashew nut shell oil and camphor oil mixed with diesel, turpentine oil mixed with diesel in different proportions as fuel in twin cylinder four stroke diesel engine. Performance and emission analysis have been performed by using exhaust gas analyzer in the oil samples. It was observed that 40% cashew nut shell oil and 10%camphor oil mixed with 50% diesel, 50% turpentine oil mixed with 50% diesel shows the better engine performance and also less emissions.

Abstract In this study, exergy, energy, performance and emission analysis were investigated for the repurpose used cooking oil (RUCO), Jatropha curcas (JC), Pongamia Pinnata (PP) and petroleum diesel fuel (PDF) fueled compression ignition engine under various engine loads. In this study, 20% of each biodiesel was tested in single cylinder, four stroke, diesel engine, given that open literature shows the potential use of biodiesel of up to 20% in a diesel engine without modification. The diesel engine was used to investigate their performance, combustion and emission characteristics of diesel-repurpose used cooking oil, Jatropha curcas, and Pongamia Pinnata fuel samples at different compression ratios and load condition. The results showed that thermal efficiency is higher with the PDF compared to DRUCO20, DJC20, DPP20 biodiesel blends. The exhaust gas temperature decreased and specific fuel consumption of the engine were increased by adding RUCO, Jatropha curcas, Pongamia Pinnata to petroleum diesel fuel. Engine ecological analysis showed that blended fuel reduces the average hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO) and NO X than petroleum diesel fuel. While DRUCO20 showed better performance and reduction in ecological analysis but higher ecological of CO 2 is comparable with DCJ20 and DPP20.

World at present is confronted with the twin crisis of fossil fuel depletion and environmental pollution. Rapid escalation in prices and hydrocarbon resources depletion has led us to look for alternative fuels, which can satisfy ever increasing demands of energy as well as protect the environment from noxious pollutants. In this direction an attempt has been made to study a biodiesel, namely Moringa Oil Methyl Esters [MOME]. All the experiments were carried out on a 4.4 kW naturally aspirated stationary direct injection diesel engine coupled with a dynamometer to determine the engine performance and emission analysis for MOME. It was observed that there was a reduction in HC, CO and PM emissions along with a substantial increase in NOx. MOME and its blends had slightly lower thermal efficiency than diesel oil.
