Summary: | In this comprehensive experimental study, our primary focus was on examining the emission and performance traits of biodiesel blends utilizing Madhuca longifolia oil, commonly known as Mahua oil. Specifically, we analyzed a B10 blend composed of 10% Madhuca longifolia oil and 90% conventional diesel fuel. Our assessment encompassed a meticulous evaluation of several crucial parameters crucial for engine performance and emissions. Key metrics included brake thermal efficiency (BTE), fuel consumption, and emissions of NOx, CO, HC, and CO2. These measurements provided a comprehensive comparison between the B10 blend containing Madhuca longifolia oil and conventional diesel fuel. The findings from this investigation shed light on the potential advantages and characteristics of utilizing Madhuca longifolia oil in biodiesel blends. Comparisons between the B10 blend and standard diesel fuel revealed significant insights into the performance and emissions aspects, highlighting the viability and potential benefits of integrating Madhuca longifolia oil-derived biodiesel in compression ignition (CI) engines. Utilizing Madhuca longifolia oil in the B10 blend for CI engines presents a unique approach. This novel method stands out by leveraging the oil’s potential as an alternative, sustainable fuel source. The outstanding performance was evident in improved brake thermal efficiency, reduced fuel consumption, and decreased emissions of NOx, CO, HC, and CO2. This blend’s exceptional performance underscores its viability as an environmentally favorable alternative to standard diesel. The distinctiveness and notable outcomes position Madhuca longifolia oil-based biodiesel as a promising, eco- friendly choice for CI engines, offering both performance enhancements and environmental benefits. |
