CRUDE OIL PRODUCTION INDIA’S OIL CONSUMPTION RISE OF VEHICLE SALE IN INDIA

Over the last decade, Fuel has been the leading source for transportation. And diesel car is one of the common
transportation vehicles. The diesel cars have internal combustion engine, where combustion is done by fuel-air mixture.
The physical properties of diesel fuel as a finished product from distillation process in refinery, depends upon the nature of
the original crude oil extracted from earth’s crust The various mixture of physical properties like volatility, ignition quality,
viscosity, gravity, stability, etc. specify the different fuel characteristics
 DIESEL GRADE AND SPECIFICATIONS

Indian Diesel Specification Implementation of Fuel Sulfur Content

Reductions
The steady improvement of the specification of diesel fuel is done to maintain a cleaner environment .
The main objective is to
reduce the sulfur content in finished product like diesel, Kerosene, etc. A lower sulfur level is important to achieve low
particulate emission and smoke exhaust .

ENGINE MODIFICATION BIODIESEL

BIODIESEL SOURCE

Biodiesel is renewable, non-toxic and sustainable alternative fuel for diesel engines; derived from a variety of animal fats and
vegetable oils. It consists of mono-alkyl esters (usually methyl esters) produced by transesterification process of parent oil or
fat
process:
CATALYST
OIL + ALCOHOL FAME / FAEE + GLYCEROL

PLANTS YEAST MICROALGAE

FUEL ADDITIVES

Antiknock Cloud point depressants

Antioxidants Pour point depressants

Cetane improver Lubricity improvers

Corrosion inhibitors Antifoam agents

Metal deactivators Biocides

Combustion improver De-icing

Detergents and Dispersants Dyes

 ENGINE PERFORMANCE STUDY

The diesel engine emission is the major contribution to pollution Fuel Consumption
and disaster. To counter this issue several emission regulations
have been imposed for the past decades. In recent studies, it has Air to fuel ratio
been concluded that alcohol-based fuel can be the major diesel
alternative fuel. Short-chain alcohol (such as ethanol, methanol, Engine Load
butanol, pentanol and hexanol) are being used as fuel blending
components to improve unleaded diesel fuel. The alcohol RPM
functional group increases the oxygen percentage in blended fuel,
which improves blends knock resistance. To deal with the Brake Power
excessive NOx emission from biodiesel, antioxidant clove is
blended with biodiesel. This decreases the NOx emission and Brake Thermal Efficiency
increases the brake thermal efficiency and decreases the brake
specific fuel consumption
