Wondering, if the addition of DEE with biodiesel influences the HC, CO, NO and Smoke emissions. Its a great honor to get answer from expertise answer from the RG community. Kindly provide your valuable answers.
Dear friend Hariprakash Subburayalu Ramesh
I love "what if" questions. It always compels you to explore that unknown direction.
According to a study (Influence of diethyl ether (DEE) addition in ethanol-biodiesel-diesel ....), the addition of diethyl ether (DEE) in ethanol-biodiesel-diesel blends resulted in increased HC and CO emissions and reduced NOx emissions. The presence of higher oxygen and lengthened ignition delay resulted in considerable smoke reduction. Another study (A Review Study on the Using of Diethyl Ether in Diesel Engines ....) found that the blends of diethyl ether exhibited reduced carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide and smoke emissions with increased hydrocarbon emissions. Lower brake specific energy consumption and increased brake thermal efficiency were observed for the blended fuels.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Additionally, you may like to read some of my publications on biodiesel at your convenience.

DEE does influence the emission outcomes from a diesel engine.
One important property of DEE is its high Cetane number, which helps to improve combustion, reduce ignition delay period etc, which are higher with the usage of biodiesel fuels. Which in turn leads to variations in the emissions and performance outcome.
