Abstract

The proposed research aims to investigate the impact of an oxidant, l-ascorbic acid, on the performance and exhaust of a diesel engine that drives on neat rapeseed methyl ester-based oil (RSOME). The antioxidant is supplemented with rapeseed oil methyl ester in a range of amounts (100–400 mg). This research revealed that, without altering the engine, the reactive additives mixture (MERSO + LA300) substantially lowered the NOX and HC emissions of methyl ester in rapeseed oil-fueled engines.
