A large proportion of annual production of worldwide greenhouses gases results from the use of internal combustion engines. This experimental work evaluates the influence of dual-fuel operation on the overall emissions of a low-displacement compression-ignition engine based on operational conditions such as torque, rotational speed, and load. Hydroxy gas is used as a supplementary gaseous fuel while using pure diespel or palm oil biodiesel as baseline fuels.

There is a possibility that a violent phase change could take place inside the fluid released generating a flashing jet. This violent phase change might produce catastrophic consequences, such as explosions, fires or toxic exposure, in the installations and in the surroundings.
