The present study investigates the effect of the TiO2 nanofluid on the formation of hydrocarbon, carbonmonoxide,nitrogen oxide and smoke emission from a neat mustard oil methyl ester fueled diesel engine.TiO2 nano particle with an average size of 50 nm was synthesized by sol-gel route. The synthesizedparticles are dispersed with mustard oil methyl ester at various concentrations (100 and 200 ppm) by themeans of a mechanical homogenizer and an ultrasonicator. Experiments were conducted in a four-stroke,single-cylinder, diesel-engine, fuelled with diesel, neat mustard oil methyl ester and nanofluid incorporatedmethyl ester. From the obtained results, it can be recognized that methyl ester from mustard oilis potential candidate as an alternative fuel in existing diesel engine. Further, it is also observed that TiO2nanofluid associated to mustard oil methyl ester reduced various emissions over neat mustard oil methylester.
