Two Wheeled Vehicles E20 Fuel Magnetization Study on Exhaust Gas Emissions

Research on the magnetization of fossil fuels that can improve the quality of combustion has been done but magnetization for fossil and non-fossil fuel mixtures such as bioethanol and gasoline mixtures has not been done. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the effect of magnetizing the mixture of gasoline (premium) and bioethanol related to the quality of combustion, especially exhaust emissions on two-wheeled vehicles (motorcycles) as 4-stroke with 125 cc engine capacity. During the experiments, CO, NOx and SO2 as the gas emissions were measured using a NOVA2000 Gas analyzer. The composition of the fuel used is E20. This fuel has flowed through electromagnetic fields with a strength of 647.15 Gauss, 847.25 Gauss, 1068.29 Gauss, and 1419.57 Gauss. Our study showed that when the mixture of fossilized fuel–bioethanol is magnetized, the resulted exhaust emission of CO, NOx, and SO2 will be plummeted by 48%, 68%, and 76%. Moreover, the combustion energy increased by 0.641%. Henceforth, this study improved previous papers such as Faris et al. [1] and Patel et al.[2] that used a magnetic field strength greater than 2000 Gauss, also Jain & Deshmukh [3] employed a magnetic field strength less than 2000 Gauss.
