Combustion and emission characteristics of n-butanol/diesel fuel blend in a turbo-charged compression ignition engine

- Regulated emissions were compared with other similar study by other authors using biodiesel blending with diesel fuel.
- There was great improvement in the reduction of the emissions using a small shared volume of n-butanol with diesel fuel.
- Premixed combustion phase is distinguishable and amplified suggesting an effective air-to-fuel mixing process.
- We recommended the use of n-butanol/diesel blend in a turbo-charged engine without any engine modifications.
