dc.description.abstractAs coal and oil reserves deplete, the world is shifting to alternative fuels and renewable energy. Researchers are exploring a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels for powering automobiles. In this investigation, biodiesel was synthesized from brown marine algae (Sargassum algae) using transesterification process. Silica-incorporated diamond-like coating (DLC) was done on the engine piston by using the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process with flow rate of 7sccm of C2H2. Three different coating thicknesses, such as 50,100, and 150 mu m, were employed on the CI engine piston. Mechanical properties such as hardness, wear, and microstructure analysis were investigated. Analysis of mechanical characteristics reveals that pistons with a 100 mu m coating have enhanced characteristics compared to those with other pistons. Using a 100 mu m silicon coated piston on a single-cylinder Kirloskar engine, four blends (B10, B20, B30, and B40) were compared to neat diesel. At maximum engine load conditions, the B40 blends produced 42 ppm of HC whereas neat diesel with 19 ppm which is 57% higher than diesel and CO emission concentration increased by 4.9% than diesel. Similarly, brake-specific fuel consumption was observed at maximum load conditions for diesel with 0.18 kg/kWh and 0.20 kg/kWh for B10D90 which is 9.54% higher than diesel. As a result, it is critical to recognize the importance of sargassum's potential for producing sustainable energy toward green globalization.
