Abstract
Abstract The consumption of fossil fuel, such as petroleum products, enhanced day to day. Hence the need for exploration of alternative fuels to reduce the degradation of fossil fuels and the use of new renewable energy is ahead momentum. Pollution increases due to the use of petroleum products and diesel fuels for various purposes, thus reducing pollution is a major issue. Biodiesel is becoming a more useful replacement for petroleum fuels due to increased brake thermal efficiency, equivalent energy density, and fewer emissions. In the present work, a new oil called waste fry oil methyl ester [WFOME] was used as an alternative fuel which is locally available [from potato chips industry].Multi-walled carbon nanotubes in 25ppm and 50ppm mass fractions were then added to WFOME to prepare biodiesel fuel blends. These blends were prepared with the help of an ultrasonicator. An experimental investigation was performed on a twin cylinder four strokes vertical in-line diesel engine fuelled with biodiesel-MWCNT blends to find out its characteristics such as performance, combustion, and emission. The resulting engine's break thermal efficiency was significantly increased and harmful emissions and environmental pollution have reduced.
