A Review Study on the Using of Diethyl Ether in Diesel Engines: Effects on NOx Emissions

Year 2018, Volume: 7 Issue: 4, 164 - 183, 29.12.2018

Abstract

This study was
compiled from the results of various researches performed on using diethyl
ether as a fuel or fuel additive in diesel engines. Three different techniques
have used the reduction of the harmful exhaust emissions of diesel engines. The
first technique for the reduction of harmful emissions has improved the
combustion by modification of engine design and fuel injection system, but this
process is expensive and time-consuming. The second technique is the using
various exhaust gas devices like catalytic converter and diesel particulate
filter. However, the use of these devices affects negatively diesel engine
performance. The final technique to reduce emissions and improve diesel engine
performance is the use of various alternative fuels or fuel additives. The
major pollutants of diesel engines are an oxide of nitrogen (NOx) and smoke or
particulate matter (PM). It is very difficult to reduce NOx and PM
simultaneously in practice. The most researches declare that the best way to
reduce is the use of various alternative fuels i.e. natural gas, biogas,
biodiesel or using additives with alternative fuels or conventional diesel
fuel. Therefore, it is very important that the results of various studies on
alternative fuels or fuel additives are evaluated together to practical
applications. Especially, this study focuses on the use of diethyl ether in
diesel engines as fuel or fuel additive in various diesel engine fuels. This
review study investigates the effects of diethyl ether addition on the NOx
emissions.
