In the current research work, attempt was made to evaluate the tail pipe exhaust CO emission deviations through cerium oxide (CeO2) nano particle involvement in Madhuca indica biodiesel (MIB). The Madhuca indica biodiesel is extracted from the seeds of the corresponding plant, and then it is processed to derive the biodiesel. The derived biodiesel is then blended with the normal diesel fuel with different propositions. The amount of CO emission percentage variation of the biodiesel blends was compared with the diesel. All the results obtained have greater emissions content. The obtained emission levels can be reduced by the influence of the cerium oxide (CeO2) nano particle with 100 ppm power. Then, the nano fluid is mixed and blended together to evaluate the CO emissions, which are then compared with the diesel fuel emission. Finally, after the experiments, it was observed that low CO emissions were emitted with the addition of biodiesel blend with cerium oxide (CeO2) nano particle and recommended for the usage and might reduce the effect of cancer and direct eye irritants that cause an allergic response in humans and animals.
