Abstract

Nowadays increasing emission regulations and environmental concerns have
led to the use of alternative fuels in internal combustion engines. Biogas is
an alternative fuel that can be produced with clean, green and natural
resources. In this study, a single cylinder, four stroke SI engine was operated
at stoichiometric conditions, 2800 rpm constant engine speed with biogas fuel
at different ratios. As biogas fuel, methane (CH4) and CO2
were used during engine tests. Test results which were taken by using only
gasoline were compared with the results obtained by using biogas fuel at
different CO2 ratios (10%, 20%, 30% and 40% by volume). Although it
was determined specific CO emissions decrease and THC emissions slightly
increases with the increasing CO2 ratio, it is foreseen that the
increase in THC emissions can be prevented by the use of three way catalytic
converter. Although the NOx emissions increase with the use of
biogas compared to gasoline, it was significantly reduced by the increased CO2
rate in the biogas fuel, the CO2's heat carrying capacity and
reducing the O2 availability of the fuel. On the other hand, because
of the high cost of purification process of biogas and after-treatment equipment,
it is foreseen that use of biogas at high ratio of CO2 in SI engines
will be advantageous in terms of NOx emissions.
