ABSTRACT

This paper elaborates the application of Nagchampa biodiesel and rice husk producer gas in dual mode using rice husk producer gas. Nagchampa biodiesel was examined under both single and dual fuel mode having a persistent gas flow rate of 21.69 kg/h at discrete loads. The test results disclosed that the engine shows improved performance and emission characteristics at optimum load of 8 kW. There is a decrease in NOx, smoke opacity, and performance, while HC, CO, and CO2 increase moderately with respect to gas flow rate. It can finally be concluded that biodiesel exhibits lower performance and improved emission than that of neat diesel.
