THE EFFECT OF USING PYROLYSIS OILS FROM POLYETHYLENE AND DIESEL ON THE POLLUTANT EMISSIONS FROM A SINGLE CYLINDER DIESEL ENGINE
Keywords:
recycling, pyrolysis, polymers waste, fuel, pollutants, diesel engineAbstract
The paper presents data related to the results obtaining following the testing of a commercial diesel fuel and a fuel obtained by chemical recycling of polymers waste based on polyethylene in a single cylinder diesel engine. The concentrations of CO, CO2, hydrocarbons, NOx and smoke have been determined in the exhausted gases. The experimental results showed that using synthesized polyethylene-based fuel, the emission of pollutants was smaller compared to the emissions when using commercial diesel fuel, except the concentration of hydrocarbons which was higher.
