Abstract

Latest trend in determination of alternate fuels have made waste energy conversion as the hot topics. In this present paper, waste cooking oil is converted into biodiesel which is used as an alternate for diesel fuel and to influence the performance parameters iron oxide nano particles was considered for DI diesel engine and its impacts on engine performance and emission characteristics were studied. The process used for the conversion of waste cooking oil into biodiesel in this paper is transesterification process. Experimental tests were conducted in a CI engine using waste cooking oil biodiesel with iron oxide nanoparticles. A CI engine at constant speed of 1500 rpm was used for doing the tests. The combination of obtained biodiesel from waste cooking oil and commercially available iron oxide nanoparticles were used in this research work. The obtained results shows that Brake thermal efficiency is increased marginally and Brake specific fuel consumption is reduced in the blend WCB FeO75 when compared to other blends.
