Effects of Emission and Performance Characteristics Study of Rubber Seed Biodiesel Fueled DI Diesel Engine Fumigated with Methanol

Researchers are looking for renewable and alternative fuels with efficient combustion that may be generated locally in response to rising prices and increasing usage of fossil fuels, as well as worries about tailpipe emissions. As a result, it is detailed here how the performance and emissions of a compression ignition engine may be assessed utilizing Methanol fumigation and Rubber seed oil. Rubber seed oil has a lower viscosity. The transesterification procedure was used to make Rubber seed biodiesel, and the attributes of plain and blended Rubber seed biodiesel were investigated. However, during transesterification, the viscosity of crude Rubber seed oil decreases. After that, the physiochemical characteristics of Rubber seed oil are compared to the qualities of diesel fuel. Rubber seed biodiesel has also been blended in volumetric ratios with plain diesel, and the qualities of the mixed biodiesel have been assessed against applicable criteria. The B20 rubber seed biodiesel and its fumigation by methanol are being compared with the emissions of neat diesel fuel. It has been found that the brake power tends to increase concerning the increase in load. On consideration of the brake-specific fuel consumption, there is a drop in the fumigation with methanol. The brake thermal efficiency is increased by 2.75%. when the methanol fumigation and in the investigation for CO emissions, B20 is found to be increased at an increase in loads. Thus the same is found while it is done with the methanol fumigation. The incomplete combustion has produced the CO. it is found that there is a few amounts of HC is increased in all loads. There is a drop in the NOX at all the loads when it is under the methanol fumigation which is 12.5% lesser than the NOX compared with neat diesel. In the CO2 emission there is a reduction in emission in the methanol fumigation up to 4%.
