In this study, the tested fuels were obtained through transesterification process.<br>The properties of algae methyl ester (AME) analysed by ASTM standard methods. Experimental<br>results showed that the cetane number and flash points of the algae methyl ester blended diesel<br>have increased with higher concentration of AME. Based on the experimental results, HC and<br>smoke emissions noticeably increase, while NOx emissions significantly decrease with<br>increasing the dosing level of AME. From the results, B25 having nearer values in terms of<br>combustion and emission to diesel fuel. At the full load, the magnitude of HC, smoke and NOx<br>emissions for the neat diesel was 114 ppm, 72 HSU and 1120 ppm, whereas it was 116 ppm, 79<br>HSU and 1070 ppm for the B25 blend of AME fuel, respectively.</p> ER -
