Integrated assessment of CI engine combustion and catalyst durability with graphene- infused Pongamia pinnata biodiesel
Researchers tested graphene-infused Pongamia biodiesel in compression ignition engines to evaluate performance and emissions. While the fuel improved thermal efficiency, it caused accelerated carbon deposition on catalytic converters, suggesting a need for better after-treatment strategies.
