Abstract
This paper presents the effect of nanoparticles as additives on PMEB’s fuel properties. There are three types of nano additives used: aluminium oxide (Al₂O₃), titanium dioxide (TiO₂), and silicon dioxide (SiO₂). In addition, the proportions of each nano additive are 50, 100, and 150 ppm and were tested on 20% of PMEB fuel. Several fuel properties tests, density, viscosity, SEM, XRD, and bomb-calorimeter, were investigated. This study found viscosity and density properties on the B20SiO₂150 nano blend with maximum values of 3.7792 mm²/s and 820.36 kg/m³ compared to the readings on B20, respectively. While in terms of heating value, the maximum value when compared to the B20 fuel is B20Al₂O₃150 (45122 J/g). Furthermore, the properties analysis testing revealed the interrelation of nanoparticle additives enriched B20 fuel properties as it is more effective in improving the biodiesel fuel blend characteristics and reducing the catastrophic gas emissions due to their combustion rate.
