ABSTRACT
As the technology is developing, many research works are conducted every day over alternate fuels, and it is very much necessary to preserve the existing petroleum resources for future generations. It is suggested to switch over to an alternate source of energy, which is easily available, renewable as well as environment-friendly. The main objective of this investigation is to describe the use of canola oil with magnesium oxide as nanoadditive and compare it with pure diesel in terms of its performance and emission characteristics. The canola oil biodiesel is produced by using transesterification reaction. The experiment was done by using four different blends (B10, B20, B30 and B40). The experimental results concluded that blend B20 gives good performance when compared to other blends. This study also resulted in another new alternative in the biodiesel category which is environment-friendly.
