EMISSION ANALYSIS ON THE INFLUENCE OF FERROFLUID ON RICE BRAN BIODIESEL

ABSTRACT Increase in NOx emission is one of the important drawbacks for using biodiesel as an alternative for petroleum diesel. Several studies had been carried out to reduce the NOx emissions level in biodiesel. The present work is the result of an attempt wherein ferrofluid is added to rice bran o...
