Abstract

Energy is becomes a vital and crucial parameter in many technical, commercial and self-development sectors of an individualistic in any countries. In this context, fossil fuels are devaluing and their costs are rises and hovering. While generating energy from the existing fossil fuels not alone economically infeasible but also provoke many sensitive environmental issues. Along with emissions from automobile sector, one of the other culprits in eco system is disposal of waste plastics. To meet the acute energy needs with eco-balance is utilizing plastic oil as functional fuel to run the engines. In the present work experimental investigations are carried out on multi cylinder petrol engine operating with 25 % plastic pyrolysis oil, with and without alcohol additives at 5 % volume basis is blended with petrol. It is noticed from the experimental results that, the engine performance with methanol additive is improved by 8.1 % than petrol and 21.74 % compared to without additive in plastic oil blend. Hydrocarbon emissions are substantially controlled by 54 % compared to petrol and 34.59 % than without additive in plastic oil blend at full load condition.
