Physico-chemical and emission characterization of emulsified biodiesel/diesel blends
Biodiesel/diesel blends (BDB) were prepared using different biodiesel percentages (10, 15 and 20% v/v) namely B10, B15 and B20, respectively. A high energy emulsification method was employed for this purpose. An engine test bed was utilized to combust the emulsion in order to investigate emission ga...
