Effect of biodiesel/diesel-based microemulsions on the exhaust emissions of a diesel engine

This paper describes the use of blends of diesel/biodiesel to obtain new microemulsion systems and their application as fuels for diesel engines. The blends were prepared using 5 vol.% (B5) and 20 vol.% (B20) biodiesel in diesel. The microemulsions were composed by either B5 or B20 as oil phase,...
