Effects of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) on a Diesel Engine Fuelled with Palm-Biodiesel

Increasing global population in present years means more vehicle ownership which leads to the increasing of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and greenhouse gas emission. Oxides of nitrogen (NOx) are produced from the fuels which burned at high temperatures; contributes to the formation of ozone smog, harm...
