By Shaheer RehanAug 4 2022Reviewed by Megan Craig, M.Sc. As fossil fuel-based resources continue to deplete, alternative fuels are in high demand. A paper published in the journal Scientific Reports aimed to determine the efficiency of using waste fish oil biodiesel, mixed with nanoparticles, in a water-cooled single-cylinder IC engine.
Fossil fuel supplies are limited and non-renewable; therefore, clean and alternate fuels are being encouraged globally. Effects of Alcohol Content on Biodiesel Using an increased alcohol concentration in biodiesel affects its heating value, viscosity, and cetane number. Nanoparticles as Fuel Additives Incorporating nanoparticles in the waste fish oil biodiesel results in improved combustion and performance metrics. Oxygenation capabilities of the waste fish oil biodiesel blended with nanoparticles minimize exhaust emissions, including smoke, carbon monoxide , hydrocarbons , and oxides of nitrogen .
Findings of the Study The influence of waste fish oil biodiesel blended with Al2O3 nanoparticles on IC engine performance, emission levels, and combustion properties was investigated in this research.
