Abstract

The need for biomass to waste plastic oil (WPO) in recent years, as the desire to diversify feedstock and reduce industrial emissions has grown. The technologies for converting biomass to conventional WPO are investigated in this paper. Biomass likes as cow dung and kitchen waste was used as a feed for the anaerobe to generate biogas. This biogas can be effectively utilized for heating purpose of synthesis WPO from waste plastic. WPO conversion process fly ash is used as catalyst with 0.1 cat/pol. WPO blend with different percentages with diesel like 25 % to 100 % WPO ((WPO 25), (WPO 50), (WPO 75) and (WPO 100) ) by volume with pure diesel and run the KIRLOSKAR TV -1 engine. At various engine loads, the impact of WPO blends on engine performance and exhaust emissions were investigated. The results are validated to those of a standard diesel fuel operation. WPO has a greater fuel concept and brake thermal efficiency than diesel. The engine functioned better with WPO25 mix.  It is discovered that the NOx, HC, CO2, and smoke emissions are greater than those of diesel.
