Utilization of Nano Particles in Diesel to Enhance Efficiency and Reduce Emission

As we are a part of the 21st century, we are living in a world where luxury has somehow become a necessity for many of us. Mode of working, travelling, living should be luxurious. In order to full fill one of these luxuries there are increased energy demand and rapid depletion of high energy non-renewable energy resources like petroleum products the search for new renewable and alternative fuels has gained momentum. Increased pollution due to the excess use of such petroleum and diesel fuels in the cars. So we need to find an appropriate solution to this problem. Emission control is one of the major challenges observed in IC Engines and field of automobile. Emission cannot be completely predicated from automobiles but instead can be minimized to the lowest level. The main objective of this project is to reduce the level of harmful pollutants in the exhaust such as unburned hydrocarbon (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and smoke. When we add nanoparticles like CeO2, Al2O3 etc. in base fuel, it can change the diesel engine performance, combustion behaviour and emission. It could improve Brake Thermal Efficiency (BTE), Specific fuel consumption and greatly reduce the harmful pollutants. There is also used specified surfactant for increase the stability. Experiments a special care was taken to improve the performance break thermal Efficiency and reduce of emission of NOx, HC, CO etc. harmful pollutants.
