  Vibration Monitoring of Diesel Engine Using Bioethanol from Water Hyacinth as Fuel

  By Choudhary A K, Chelladurai H., Kannan C.

  Abstract: For the current study, water hyacinth plants (Eichhornia crassipes) are used as raw materials for fermentation with native yeast isolated from the water hyacinth plants. Acid hydrolysis followed by fermentation with the yeasts resulted in the yield of bioethanol. Bioethanol is mixed with diesel fuel in different ratios and used in IC engines. Vibrations have direct effects on engine components therefore; analysis of vibration resulting from combustion in IC engines …
