ABSTRACT

This work investigates the impact of diethyl ether as an effective cetane improver on exhaust emission on biodiesel fuelled diesel engine. Transesterification process has followed to yield Mustard oil methyl ester (MOME) from raw Mustard oil using sodium hydroxide as a catalyst. Test fuels used are Diesel, Mustard oil methyl ester (BD100), 10%, 20% of Di-ethyl Ether (BD90DEE10, BD80DEE20) incorporated MOME, respectively. This work was carried out in a single cylinder four stroke diesel engine. Results showed that by the addition of DEE with biodiesel shows considerable reduction Carbon dioxide (CO), Hydrocarbon (HC), Smoke emission.
