Exhaustion of fossil fuel resources, inconsistent fuel costs and the difficulty of adopting electric vehicle technology in commercial vehicles support the idea that there is an opportunity for research in public transit regarding the correlation between energy efficiency and aerodynamic drag. The...
Air pollution and health
The hunt for alternative fuels that may be utilized in place of conventional fuels is intensifying quickly since the availability of fossil fuels is dwindling daily. In this work, biodiesel derived from pumpkin and cotton seed oils is presented for use as diesel engine fuel. Related to diesel, the...
Air pollution and health
The study explores the usage of Diesel Fuel (DF) blends in conjunction with two biofuels, eucalyptus and turpentine oil, in diesel engines to address the reduction of air pollutants such as Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen Oxides (NOX), Unburned Hydrocarbons (UBHC), and smoke density. Results indicate...
