Abstract

In this research paper, experiment was conducted to analysis the emissions from Pongamia biodiesel blended with zinc oxide additive. A single cylinder four stroke, water cooled diesel engine is used for the testing purpose. AVL437C Smoke meter and five gas analyser are used for testing emissions. The emission comparison was done between diesel and Pongamia biodiesel blended with zinc oxide nano additive. The results show that PF B20 20ppm has good emission reduction values compared to diesel. Emissions such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, Hydro carbons, Nitric oxides and smoke are studied and compared with respect to diesel fuel standards.
