摘要：
Hydrocarbons, present in plastic, are a great fuel source because of their high energy density. The disposal of waste plastic offers major potential for energy conservation and recovery. This research focuses on recovering energy from waste plastics as a potential alternative fuel source for automobiles. This study aims to evaluate the performance of Plastic Pyrolysis Fuel (PPF) produced by the pyrolysis of low-density polyethylene. Ethanol is an attractive alternative fuel since it is produced from renewable bio-resources and acts as an oxygenated to allow for emission reductions in diesel engines. Three distinct ratios of PPF were mixed with 15% ethanol as an oxygenated addition to producing tertiary fuel blends. The performance and emission requirements of a single-cylinder direct injection diesel engine are examined in this study. Specific fuel consumption decreases for P20E15 about 3.5% to 7.8% with diesel. The carbon monoxide emissions from P20E15 were about 4.2% to 6.8% lesser than diesel and hydrocarbon reported with a decrease of 6% to 13.43%, at the different loading. The smoke produced by the P20E15 blend is decreased by around 24% when compared to diesel. The results were analysed further using the full factorial design technique to determine the most optimal running condition. © 2022. MechAero Foundation for Technical Research & Education Excellence.
