Description
Summary:Disposal of waste cooking oil (WCO) is a difficult process, so it is chosen for the production of biodiesel. The impact of CuO, nanoparticle additive on biodiesel blend obtained from waste cooking oil was tested in DI diesel engine. The obtained waste cooking oil is subjected to filtering process and it is trans-esterified to form biodiesel. This biodiesel is mixed with diesel to produce different blends D90+B10 (90% Diesel +10% Biodiesel), D80+B20 (80% Diesel +20% Biodiesel), D80+B20+50mg (80% Diesel +20% Biodiesel+50mg additive). These blends are subjected to emission test and performance test and the values are obtained. Based on the test report it is found that this (D80+B20-80% Diesel+20% Biodiesel) blend has higher emission properties. To control the emission the copper oxide additive is added to that blend and it is subjected to emission and performance test and it is found that brake thermal efficiency is decreased by 17.9%, specific fuel consumption is decreased by 14.11%, CO emission is decreased by 70.8%, HC emission is decreased by 17.45%, and NOx emission is increased by 15.65% this value is obtained by comparing with the blend D80+B20.
