Abstract

Shortage of conventional power sources, ordinary energizes and the unrefined petroleum extracts increases the cost of processed fuel. It is necessary to find out fuel hotspots for viable use in automobile and industrial applications. Research in this area of using oil extracted using pyrolysis process from the waste tyre and mixed with biodiesel is attracting attention. In this survey, a single-cylinder four-stroke conventional diesel engine with waste tyre pyrolysis oil and biodiesel mixtures was performed. Testing on single-barrel four-stroke diesel motor by using biodiesel synthesized with palm stearin oil from waste tyre pyrolysis oil is taken up in this work. Analysis shows the rise in brake thermal efficiency (BTE) to the mix level. It is also noted that pollution such as CO, HC and NOx is limited compared to traditional diesel fuel.
