Analysis on Synthesis, Storage & Combustion characteristics of DME as fuel in CI engines
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
This article reviews on various methods of production of Di-Methyl Ether (DME) avail in present scenario, its storage difficulties and the reasons for holding DME still under research as an alternative fuel. The demand for the development of alternative clean energy sources has risen with increase in the rate of depletion of oil reserves. DME, an ultraclean alternative fuel with less emission, higher cetane number has attracted the world researchers. DME is produced from a variety of raw materials starting from biomass, coal and natural gas. Despite of its greater compatibility with diesel, it has some undesirable properties that make it uncomfortable to use in present compression ignition (CI) engines. This paper presents a brief review of the possible DME production processes and its combustion characteristics.
