The main goal of the project was to lower the emission of environmental pollutants from diesel motors by adding metal-oxide nanoparticles to the fuel.
The results show that using the designed additive drops fuel usage by 4 percent, boosts the efficiency of the diesel-motor and lowers the emitted nitric oxide and carbon monoxide by 40 and 25 percent, respectively.
Mina Mehregan, a Ph.D. candidate of mechanical engineering and Dr. Mohammad Moghimian, a faculty member at Ferdowsi University are two key members in the research team. The results of the project are published in Fuel Journal with an impact factor of 4.9.
