Effect of Injection Timing and Injector Opening Pressures on the Performance of Diesel Engine Fuelled with Ceiba Pentandra Oil Methyl Ester -Recent Advances in Petrochemical Science -Juniper Publishers JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-RECENT ADVANCES IN PETROCHEMICAL SCIENCE  EFFECT OF INJECTION TIMING AND INJECTOR OPENING PRESSURES ON THE PERFORMANCE OF DIESEL ENGINE FUELLED WITH CEIBA PENTANDRA OIL METHYL ESTER Authored by Banapurmath NR Experiments were carried out on a compression ignition (CI) engine to study its performance at different injection timings (IT), injector opening pressures (IOP) and nozzle holes. The Ceiba Pentandra oil methyl ester (CPOME) was selected to check its suitability as CI engine fuel. The engine was operated at 1500 rpm keeping hemispherical combustion chamber (HCC) shape and compression ratio of (CR) of 17.5. IT of 27 °C BTDC, IOP of 240 bar and injector of 5 holes yielded better performance.Maximum BTE for CPOME found to be ...

Pseudo-Lignin Formation during Dilute acid Pretreatment for Cellulosic Ethanol -Recent Advances in Petrochemical Science -Juniper Publishers JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-RECENT ADVANCES IN PETROCHEMICAL SCIENCE  PSEUDO-LIGNIN FORMATION DURING DILUTE ACID PRETREATMENT FOR CELLULOSIC ETHANOL Authored by Arthur J. Ragauskas Dilute acid-based pretreatment represents one of the most important pretreatment technologies to reduce biomass recalcitrance and it has been successfully applied to a wide range of feedstocks. During this type of pretreatment, the relative lignin content usually increases partially due to the loss of carbohydrates. To Read more.....
