Emission Analysis of Single Cylinder C I Engine using Karanja Biodiesel-Diesel Blends

Different researches using different types of alternative fuels carried out by different researchers was benig done. Based on literature review it is find out that for C I engine, Bio-Diesel is most capable alternative fuel regarding to the emission characteristics. In this experimental work prediction and opportunities of utilizing 100% Karanja biodiesel and increasing karanja biodiesel-diesel blend ratio as an alternative fuel in single cylinder diesel engine is going to be studied by varying engine loads. Also an optimum blend and engine parameters are to be suggested for obtaining better performance based on experimentation. Karanja biodiesel presents a very promising development of functioning as alternative fuels to fossil diesel fuel. The characteristics required for internal combustion engine fuels specially C I engine can be compared favorably with the properties of Karanja biodiesel. Experiments will performed for five engine loads i.e. 1,3,5,7 and 9 kg using baseline diesel and karanja biodiesel-diesel blends i.e. K10, K20, K40, K60, K80, pure Karanja biodiesel with constant speed of diesel engine. The parameters which will study in emission are HC, CO, CO2, NOX. The results of experimental observations with biodiesel blends were compared with that of pure baseline diesel. All the blends of Karanja biodiesel with diesel have considerable lesser Emission of HC, CO, CO2, NOX as compared to diesel.
