Abstract

Primary pollutants IC engines are nitrogen oxide (NOx) and particulate matter (PM). For most recent years, researchers are rigorously working to discover the alternative fuel which will cut emission characteristics without compromising the performance. There are two methods in general to reduce emission in CI Engines. One way is using catalytic converter and another is to get better performance of Diesel engine using nano fuel additive. Adding fuel additive is one of the best ways to improve the performance of CI engines. Many researchers have contributed in this area and this paper consolidates the outcomes of different tests done on the CI engine utilizing nano fuel additives with pyrolysis oil in diesel fuel. It is understood that majority of the researchers report performance enhancement and reduction in emission characteristics with dosing of nano particles additives in diesel and biodiesel. The result of several nano particles on the enrichment in the performance characteristics and drop in emission of CI engine tested with diesel-biodiesel fuel blends are discussed.
