Diesel Engine Performance and Exhaust Emission Analysis Using Diesel-Organic Germanium Fuel Blend

The global diesel fuel stock has been decreasing due to its non-renewable source. Hence, many researchers have focused on an alternative fuel that can reduce the use of fossil fuel. Alternative fuels such as biodiesel, bio-alcohol and other biomass sources have been extensively research to find its...
