摘要

As of today scenario using the renewable resources from the waste and biomass is essential to decrease the dependence on the fossil fuel imports. This study is to use the waste castor seed into oil and for powering the power pack along with biobutanol extracted from waste of fruits and vegetables from the food processing outlets. As a first step, the possible combination of the fuel blend is being chosen by preparing various proportions of castor oil biodiesel (from 100 to 55% in steps of 5%) and biobutanol (0–35% in increments of 5%). The blends are being tested for the phase separation test in the environment of 25 °C for a period of thirty days. The chosen blend (25% biobutanol and rest castor oil biodiesel 75CBD25BB) has been tested for the performance in power pack which is used for diesel as primary fuel. This blend tested by optimizing the parameters—compression ratio, fuel injection timing, and nozzle opening pressure of the test power pack through L9 orthogonal array. Further this blend is enhanced with nanoalumina in three proportions, viz. 50, 75, and 100 mg per liter. It is found that the blend with optimal levels of parameters CR 19:1; FIT 26 deg. CA; NOP 210 bar along with 100 mg per liter resulted in better performance and competent emissions.
