Application of Clean Fuels in Combustion Engines [electronic resource] / edited by Gabriele Di Blasio, Avinash Kumar Agarwal, Giacomo Belgiorno, Pravesh Chandra Shukla.

Alcohol-based fuels in spark and compression ignition engines: A detailed analysis on exhaust emissions and performance -- Waste Products Recycling and their Conversion into diesel like fuel to reduce the consumption of diesel to fuel Compression Ignition Engine and Testing the Performance of the blends -- Fuel Injection System for Methanol Fuelled CI Engines -- Butanol as a Renewable Fuel for Spark Ignition and Compression Ignition Engines -- Advances in the utilization of biogas in diesel engines: An exergy based approach -- Bio fuels as an alternative fuels for the automobiles.

This book discusses the impact of fuels characteristics and their effects on the combustion processes in internal combustion engines. It includes the analysis of a variety of biofuels (alcohol fuels and biodiesel) and biogases (natural gas, hydrogen, etc.), providing valuable information related to consequent effects on performance and emissions. The contents focus on recent results and current trends of fuel utilization in the transport sector. State-of-the-art of clean fuels application are also discussed. Thighs book will be of interest to those in academia and industry involved in fuels, IC engines, engine instrumentation, and environmental research.
