Abstract

The experimental investigation was carried out to find the combustion and emissions performance of an industrial burner fuelled with five different types of fuel diesel D100%, waste cooking oil biodiesel B100%, D50%B50% blends, and additive ‘THERMOL-D’ added in biodiesel B100% and conventional diesel D100%. The outcome indicates a decline as compared to diesel fuel. While the experimental findings indicate that under various operating conditions, both NOx emission and the maximum flame temperature have increased. However, surfactant, demulsified, lubricity enhancer, dispersion, cetane improver, antioxidant, and combustion catalyst are just a few of the ingredients in ‘THERMOL-D,’ a new hydrocarbon-based multipurpose fuel additive. By mixing THERMOL-D additives with pure diesel D100% and pure biodiesel B100%, all combustion characteristics and emissions of the industrial burner are significantly improved. The CO, HC, soot, and NO and NO2 emissions levels decreased and the maximum flame temperature and exhaust flame temperature dramatically increased. According to the results, additional diesel and biodiesel additives reduced CO, HC, soot and NOx by (about 75% and 100%), (about 65% and 75%), (about 60% and 75%) and (about 25% and 45%), respectively. In addition to increasing the maximum flame temperature (about 6% and 15%), respectively. compared to diesel.
