Abstract

Rubber Seed Biodiesel (RSB) and Plastic Pyrolysis Oil (PPO) deserve to be considered as alternative fuels for diesel engines, because of their advantages such as large raw material resources, derived from free or waste feedstock and the use of plastic waste as fuel can prevent environmental pollution. Due to their almost identical densities, RSB and PPO can be mixed homogeneously. In general, the use of a mixture of RSB and petroleum diesel in diesel engines shows positive performance, both engine performance and emissions, as well as the use of mixed PPO and diesel fuel. Although RSB has a good cetane number and flash point, on the other hand, RSB also has disadvantages in its physiochemical properties, such as low oxidation stability, high acid value, low heating value, and high viscosity. Likewise, PPO has good oxidation stability, acid value, and viscosity, but the flash point, CO, and HC emissions are also bad. This article tries to describe the opportunity to mix RSB and PPO, to find the best composition between RSB and PPO which shows the best fuel physiochemical properties and engine performance.

Abstract

Tribological properties are crucial for air-conditioning system performance. The properties can be improved using nanolubricant. However, the effect of the binary ratio of hybrid nanolubricants on the tribological performance of automotive systems is limited in the literature. Therefore, the present study investigates the tribology performance of TiO2-SiO2 nanolubricants for application in automotive air-conditioning (AAC) systems. The dispersion of TiO2 and SiO2 into PVE lubricant was carried out using a two-step method. Subsequently, the dispersion stability was assessed qualitatively and quantitatively. The samples were characterised by a volume concentration of 0.010%, with variations in the mixture ratio of 20:80, 40:60, 50:50, 60:40, and 80:20. Coefficient of friction (COF) and wear scar diameter (WSD) values were determined using the Koehler Four-ball Tribo Tester and Light Compound Microscopy. The investigation revealed that each sample experienced a reduction in COF, with the 40:60 ratio demonstrating the best ratio with the most significant decrease of 37.09%. At the same time, the COF decreased by 8.34%, 2.12%, 7.37%, and 15.11% for the nanolubricant samples at 20:80, 50:50, 60:40, and 80:20, respectively. The WSD evaluation showed that the 40:60 ratio has the lowest scar diameter of 0.0344 mm and a 37.09% wear rate decrease compared to pure lubricant. Each sample exhibits superior performance when evaluated for tribological characteristics and performance, particularly in the case of nanolubricants with the 40:60 ratio. The TiO2-SiO2/PVE, characterised by a volume concentration of 0.010%, has remarkable efficacy across different binary ratios, making it highly recommended with a 40:60 ratio for lubricating AAC compressor systems.

Abstract

This study aimed to comprehensively analyze particulate matter (PM) emissions from vehicles, focusing on their sources based on combustion and non-combustion process, classification (PM10, PM2.5, PM0.1), and health implications (including PM transportation into lungs). Employing bibliometric analysis, we assessed the growth of scientific publications related to PM, identifying top-cited works based on citations, publisher, author, country, and affiliation. We also visually mapped the development of research in this field using keyword-based publication data from Scopus (2019-2023) with the keywords "particulate matter", "emission”, and "particle size" by utilizing Publish or Perish and VOSviewer software. Our findings underscore a significant uptrend in particulate matter research, shedding light on key areas of investigation. This study serves as a valuable resource for academics seeking research direction and a reference point for future investigations.

Abstract

To accelerate the energy transition, starting February 1, 2023, the Indonesian government has made it mandatory to use biodiesel (B35). Biodiesel has different characteristics from diesel oil, especially its greater viscosity and density, lower heating value, and high NOx emission. Therefore, this research has been carried out by adding the additive diethyl ether (DEE) to B35 to reduce the viscosity and density, increase the cetane number, and reduce emissions. The effects of diethyl ether on engine performances have been evaluated, including parameters of torque, power, brake thermal efficiency, brake-specific fuel consumption, exhaust emissions, and lubricants. The fuels used are B35 (35% FAME palm oil + 65% diesel oil), and B35 + DEE, with a DEE volume percentage of 3% to 6%. Diesel fuel (B0) was used as a comparison. Tests were carried out in the engine performance test laboratory using the heavy-duty diesel engine Komatsu SAA12V140E-3 at various engine speeds. The test results showed that adding diethyl ether slightly increases the average maximum power, increases brake thermal efficiency, and reduces brake-specific fuel consumption and emissions compared to B35. Very significant effects were seen in NOx and SO2 exhaust emissions. At maximum load, the mixture with 4% diethyl ether gave the greatest brake thermal efficiency, the lowest brake-specific fuel consumption, and the greatest reduction in NOx and SO2 emissions, respectively 7.69%, 6.30%, 53.48%, and 40.89% compared to B35, and 2.24%, (-0.90%), 48.88% and 71.17% compared to B0, respectively. Evaluation of lubricating oil during the performance test did not show a significant difference for all types of fuel used.
