Abstract :
In recent years, due to the depletion of fossil
fuels, renewable and cleaner diesel fuel has become
required. The scientists are investigating a number of biobased fuels. Biodiesel is likely to be a strong challenger for
diesel fuel in the near future. Although pure biodiesel may
be used in diesel engines, it has a number of
disadvantages, including a greater density, a lower cetane
number, and a lower calorific value, which prevents it
from completely replacing ordinary diesel. As a result, it
is preferable to use biofuel mixes in diesel engines. As a
result, this study investigates two opposing viewpoints on
nanoparticles' role in biofuel synthesis, as well as the
impact of nanoparticles in biodiesel–diesel fuel blends on
diesel engine performance, combustion analysis, and
emission characteristics. The findings of previous
research studies on the potential and use of nanoparticles
in bioethanol production, as well as the impact of adding
nanoparticles to diesel fuel with varied biofuel ratios, are
included in this review study. A number of ways for
enhancing engine performance have been studied.
Nanoparticles may be employed in the production of
biofuels in a variety of ways, from pre-treatment of
feedstock to chemical reaction catalysts. When compared
to biodiesel–diesel blends with and without alcohol as
additives, adding nanoparticles resulted in a 20 percent to
23 percent reduction in brake specific fuel consumption.
Apart from their excellent heat conductivity,
nanoparticles enhanced the combustion process and
boosted braking power by 2.5 to 4%. In majority of the
studies, NOx emissions increased by up to 55 percent, but
HC, CO, and PM emissions fell considerably. According
to the findings, adding more nanoparticles to biodiesel
and biodiesel blends as fuel in a CI engine might
successfully operate a diesel engine while also providing
better performance and controlled emissions.
