Partial Hydrogen Induction Analysis on Internal Combustion Engine
Abstract: A hydrogen vehicle uses hydrogen as a fuel to get the output power. There are various applications of hydrogen based applications like space rockets, automobiles etc. In major studies it is found that the cheapest and efficient method of producing hydrogen is by the process of electrolysis. In this paper, we use the hydrogen as fuel with gasoline which is more efficient than the normal gasoline engine. The process is …

Review on Effects of Torrefaction Process on the Biomass
Abstract: This paper contains review of the effects of torrefaction process variables on several types of biomass. In the torrefaction process, biomass is slowly heated in an inert atmosphere and temperature ranges from 200 to 300°C. This results in the complete degradation of hemicellulose content of the biomass and changes the properties of the biomass. Due to the improved properties, it becomes more convenient fuel. It is also called a pretreatment …

Assessment of Environmental Impact of Power Generation in Banking Industry
Abstract: Energy consumption of using diesel generators to power banks is a contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This paper presents an assessment of environmental impact of power generation in banking. HOMER-optimization and simulation software tool was used to study the environmental impact of banks powered by diesel generators. The environmental impact of powering banks with diesel generators was assessed by quantifying the emissions generated in terms of pollution and the …

PERFORMANCE AND EMISSION ANALYSIS OF RAPESEED METHYL ESTER BLENDS AS ALTERNATE FUEL FOR DIESEL ENGINE APPLICATIONS
Abstract: Air pollution at sea is due to exhaust emissions from the marine diesel engines of cargo ships, tugs, passenger and patrolling vessels, and motorboats. The emissions from marine engines cause human health hazards like cancer in the lungs, cardio problems, effects the healthy environment, ozone layer depletion and global warming. Rapeseed methyl ester (RME) blends with diesel fuel is one of the best alternate fuels to reduce the exhaust emissions …

Biodiesel Production and Performance, Emission Technique: a Review
Abstract: AbstractBiodiesel, a non-regular, less expensive and boundless wellspring of energy can be a decent substitute for diesel fuel. Biodiesel as an elective fuel is being viewed as economical energy source and would move towards becoming as critical as oil-based commodities of the present time. The nonconventional fuel is produced using diverse feedstock relying upon their accessibility. In the present investigation we have studied the performance as well as emission of …

Biomass Power-Green Energy Commitment in India
Abstract: Biomass is a renewable energy resource derived from living biological matter. It has environmental benefits because its combustion emits lesser amount of pollutants compared with the conventional fuels like coal, and so on. Another advantage of biomass is that it can be used as a fuel in the existing conventional power plants. In India, approximately 70% of the population is dependent on biomass for its energy and approximately 32% of …
