Reduction of Pollutant for SI Engine Using Argon and Oxy-hydrogen
Abstract: Reducing the emission associated with oil combustion is gaining increasing interest worldwide. Due to their dangerous effects on human health, vegetation and climate, various pre-combustion, in-cylinder and post combustion techniques have been tried for their abatement. The combustion of a hydrocarbon fuel with air produces mainly carbon dioxide(CO2) and Water(H2O). However, internal combustion engines are not perfectly efficient, so some of the fuel is not burned, which results in the …

Comparative Parametric Investigation of Methane, Propane, Butane, and Gasoline on Single Cylinder SI Engine to Improve its Performance and Emission Characteristics
Abstract: This paper presents the single cylinder SI engine based generator. The focus of this study is to use various alternative fuels like LPG (Propane), CNG (Methane), butane and comparing their performances with conventional fuel gasoline for SI engine. This study investigates that when using alternative fuels, the most prominent fuel in performance is methane, because performance is comparatively increasing and emissions are reduced. So, the methane (CH4) fuel is efficient, …

Quasi-Dimensional Thermodynamic Performance and Emission Modelling for Dual-Fuel SI Engine Operation Using Waste-Based Producer Gas and Methane
Abstract: Rising energy crisis and urgent need for better waste-handling techniques have gained significant attention. Integration of wastes-to-wealth and Green Energy evolution techniques are prime sustainable measures towards countering this menace. Moreover, Internal Combustion (IC) engines are significant energy consumers and their emissions play a major factor in global warming and ecological obliteration. Concerning these aspects, investigations should strive at emissions minimization and reutilization of low-impact industrial byproducts. Thus, using methane …
