Feasibility of diesel–biodiesel–ethanol/bioethanol blend as existing CI engine fuel: An assessment of properties, material compatibility, safety and combustion
Shahir, S.A.; Masjuki, H.H.; Kalam, M.A.; Imran, A.; … - In: Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 32 (2014) C, pp. 379-395
The global fossil fuel crisis and emission problems lead to investigations on alternative fuels. In this quest, a successful finding is the partial substitution of diesel with ethanol/bioethanol rather than completely replacing it. These blends of diesel and ethanol/bioethanol can be used in the...
