The rising world population and its corresponding energy demands pose a considerable
burden on natural energy sources. The exploitation of fossil fuels at such an alarming rate …

Biodiesel is an unsurpassed alternative fuel source intended to extend the value to fossil
fuels, and the longevity and cleanliness of diesel engines. It reduces the dependence on the …

Nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (nitro-PAHs) are derivatives of PAHs with at least
one nitro-functional group (-NO 2) on the aromatic ring. The toxic effects of several nitro …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are worldwide pollutants produced mainly during
incomplete combustion and pyrolysis of organic substances. PAH derivatives are …

Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in air particulate matter contribute considerably to
the health risk of air pollution. The objectives of this study were to assess the occurrence and …

In this research work, the experimental investigation of the effect of diesel-biodiesel-
bioethanol emulsion fuels on combustion, performance and emission of a direct injection …

Abstract 21 PAHs, 27 oxy-PAHs and 32 nitro-PAHs were measured every third day over a
year in both gaseous (G) and particulate PM 10 (P) phases in ambient air of Grenoble …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a class of hazardous organic contaminants
that are widely distributed in nature, and many of them are potentially toxic to humans and …

Higher carbon alcohols such as n-propanol, n-butanol, and n-pentanol that can be produced
from biomass can be used as alternative fuels in diesel engines. These alcohols can mix …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are harmful compounds because of their toxicity,
adverse effects on human health, and threats to engine components (ie wetstacking). With …
