Abstract

With increase in energy expenditure, stringent emission norms, depletion of petroleum fuels and undulate cost of petroleum products in India, it has become vital to use alternative fuels for diesel engines. The energy conversion from waste plastics has been an intelligent way to tackle the environmental pollution problem of waste plastic management in the landfills. Plastics being derived from petrochemical source has higher amount of hydrocarbon which yield oil with high calorific value. In this review, performance combustion and emission characteristics of diesel engine using neat plastic oil, blends of waste plastic oil and additives used with plastic oil as fuels are addressed. It is concluded that it is possible to use plastic oil derived from plastic wastes as an alternative fuel for diesel engines.
