Reduction of Nitric Oxide Emissions from a Direct Injection Diesel Engine Run on Non Petroleum Fuel Blend using Natural Antioxidant

Small and medium sized industry and other manufacturing units in the India have vital contributed to the growth of our country. However, to run these units and for transportation of products more of petroleum fuels have been consumed. To replace the petroleum fuels many researches have been done and biodiesel derived from Jatropha oil has been found one of the suitable candidates. In this study fuel obtained by the pyrolysis of waste tire is blended with jatropha biodiesel and used as test fuel. The fuel B20 80 Jatropha biodiesel 20 tire pyrolysis oil has higher viscosity then diesel which restrict its good performance. The one of the major obstacles of using this as diesel engine fuel is its long term storage issues. It is well known fact that to improve the oxidation stability we need to add some antioxidant. The TPO has some natural antioxidant itself. Further some synthetic antioxidants were added in B20 and oxidation stability was checked. Also, test have been done with B20 in two different conditions i.e. with and without antioxidant. The synthetic antioxidants tert butyl hydroquinone TBHQ , pyrogallol PY and propyl gallate PG has been chosen for this study. The test was conducted in a single cylinder diesel engine of model TAF1. The various performance and emission studies have been conducted, analyzed and presented in this research paper.
