Abstract
ABSTRACT The present contribution is focused on the preparation of biogas and producer gas from waste biomass and its application in a diesel engine to study their emission characteristics by the partial replacement of conventional diesel in dual fuel mode. Experiments are carried out at different engine loads and a constant gas flow rate for diesel mode as well as dual fuel mode operation. A comparative result of exhaust emissions at various engine loads are presented for diesel mode and dual fuel mode of gaseous fuels. The study reveals that hydrocarbon and carbon dioxide of producer gas are 65.8% and 24.6%, and of biogas are 109.7%, and 10.24%, respectively, higher than diesel mode. Furthermore, biogas shows a better control of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxide emission compared to producer gas except hydrocarbon emission.
