Abstract
The harness of conventional fuels is day by day escalating because of the rise in the number of vehicles running by IC engines. Because of this, pollution is also increasing rapidly and it is very dangerous to our environment. If the same thing continues further there will be a problem of extinction of conventional fuel and also the problem of pollution. One of the best alternativesto this problem is biodiesel and mahua is one of the promising biodiesels which is extracted from the mahua non-edible trees which are abundantly accessible in India. Most of the biodiesels are used up to 15–20% blend percentage and it is also having superior properties than those biodiesels. Cetane number improver such as DTBP is supplemented to it to improve the biodiesel performance. Literature survey provided that the toting up of additive may proliferate the blending percentage of mahua biodiesel. The results divulge that M30 with additives indicated an augmented thermal efficiency by 8–10% and declined specific energy consumption by 9–12% compared to diesel and M30 fuel.
