Investigation of Sustainable Nano Added Solid Propellants Using Mesquite Powder and Plastic Waste Oil

Abstract

Abstract: This study investigates the creative use of leftover cooking oil and the invasive plant species Prosopis Juliflora as a sustainable and renewable resource. In many areas, Prosopis Juliflora has created ecological and economic problems that frequently result in land degradation. Additionally, disposing of used cooking oil raises environmental concerns. In order to create a unique biofuel, our study looks into the process of turning Prosopis Juliflora biomass into charcoal, which is then combined with leftover cooking oil. We examine the fuel characteristics, combustion efficiency, and emissions of this biofuel blend via a battery of tests in an effort to offer a sustainable and financially feasible solution for the management of waste oil as well as the problem of invasive plants. The objectives of this initiative are to enhance rural livelihoods, promote energy sustainability, and protect the environment.
