Comparative Study of Particulate Matter (PM) Emissions in Diesel Engine Using Diesel-Methanol Blends

In this research, Palm Oil Methyl Ester (PME) was added to methanol-biodiesel fuel in order to reduce the emissions. Thus, for diesel engines, alcohols are receiving increasing attention because they are oxygenated and renewable fuels. Therefore, in this study, the effect of PM emission level of a f...
