Abstract
One of the methods to reduce the use of fossil fuel is blending ethanol with fossil diesel. However, an emulsifier or a co-solvent is needed to homogenize the diesel-ethanol blends. This project is aimed to investigate experimentally the performance and exhaust emission characteristics by adding additive as ethanol in methyl ester of rice bran oil in CI engine. The experimental results showed that the highest brake thermal efficiency was observed with 5% ethanol in the diesel-biodiesel-ethanol blend was lower than that of diesel fuel. The hydrocarbons and smoke were lower than that of diesel fuel, the rice bran oil biodiesel can be used as an additive to mix higher percentage of ethanol in diesel-ethanol blends to improve the performance and reduce the emissions of a diesel engine.
