Formulation, characterization, and optimation of emulsion fuel

This research presents formulation, characterization, and optimization study of emulsion fuel. Different types of surfactants, ratios of surfactants, and water/oil ratios were used. Types of surfactants used were Span-80, Triton X-100, and SDDS. The ratios used for each surfactant was 1.0%, 1.5%, an...

Different types of surfactants, ratios of surfactants, and water/oil ratios were used. Types of surfactants used were Span-80, Triton X-100, and SDDS. The ratios used for each surfactant was 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0%. The ratios of water/oil used were 20/80, 30/70, and 40/60.

Stability test was done with the duration of five to six days, and data of shear rate, shear stress, torque, and viscosity were recorded via viscosity test.
