Abstract

In this study, experiment has been conducted to analyze the emission characteristics of diesel engine using water in diesel emulsion made from low grade diesel (D2) as fuel. Four different water percentage of emulsion fuels were compared with diesel fuel. Surfactant used at the same amount for each emulsion fuel. Engine was operated at 4 different loads with constant 1500 rpm. Particulate matter (PM) , nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO) has been measured. The result show significant reduction of PM and NOx when operated using emulsion fuel. CO emission for emulsion fuel deteriorates at low and high loads.
