dc.description.abstractNowadays, Pollution has become the biggest issue for the entire world. Along with the developing countries, the developed counties are also facing a problem to live in a polluted Environment. Air- pollution is at the top of the list among all types of pollutions. The Fuel emission is a major contributor in the increase of Air- quality index to a Dangerous value. This situation can be controlled by using different Alternative fuel blends to replace the fossil fuels which cause harmful emissions. The Jatropha Oil, which is obtained from the Jatropha curcas, which is a flowering plant that contains 27-40% oil in its seeds and can be processed to produce high- quality biodiesel. It is quite easy to process this plant for oil as Being a plant that generally grows in tropical conditions, it can be grown in any area depending upon the availability if it has low rainfall or high rainfall. As per the experimental analysis is has been observed that the emissions caused by the Jatropha oil fuel are comparatively less as compared to the conventional fossil fuel. Based on the research and the various experiments performed by the experts, it has been observed that Brake thermal efficiency (BTE) of Petroleum diesel was higher as compared to Jatropha Biodiesel blends unlike the Brake specific energy consumption (BSEC) which was comparatively low. Apart from this, the emission of unburned hydrocarbon (UBHC), carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) was lower, however the emission of Nitrogen oxide (NOX) was higher of Jatropha methyl ester to diesel fuel. This results that the Jatropha oil can have major applications in the field of Alternative fuels in future as far as the production of a clean, renewable and very less harmful fuel is concerned unlike the conventional fossil fuels. With the further advancement of technology, it is clear that Jatropha oil and its blends can be a major breakthrough in the field alternative fuels and can be considered as the best replacement of the conventional diesel fuel with some minor modifications.en_US
