Abstract: The present experimental study examines the impact of aluminium oxide nanoparticles (ALN) as additives in chicken waste oil biodiesel on a single cylinder diesel engine performance and emission characteristics. Different dosage of ALN was blended with chicken biodiesel (CB) using ultrasonic mixing in 200th by volume of biodiesel. The performance and exhaust emissions were evaluated using 100ppm, 150ppm and 200ppm aluminium oxide nanoparticles dosages blended chicken biodiesel for different brake power at a constant speed of 1500rpm and compared the results with diesel(B0) and 20% by volume of chicken biodiesel (CB20). Increased brake thermal efficiency and reduced brake specific fuel consumption were observed with the addition of aluminium oxide nanoparticles as compared to biodiesel blend and diesel at 3/4th of load. Also, reduced emissions hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide and increased NOX with ALN at full load. Overall, biodiesel with aluminium oxide nanoparticles improved the diesel engine performance and emissions characteristics with a slight increase in NOX.
