Optimisation Of Ternary Green Diesel Blends For Diesel/Palm Methyl Ester/Alcohol Using Product Design Optimization

Among many alternative fuels, oxygenated fuels like biodiesel and biomass-based energy (biofuel) such as bioalcohol have greater potential to enhance engine performance and mitigate particulate exhaust emissions in compression-ignition (CI) engines. The main objective of this study is to determine t...
