abstract: High inert gas content in biogas resulted in poor burning and emissions attributes, though scarcely investigated in reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI). Established kinetic mechanisms were combined with multi-objective optimization to investigate, predict, and analyze emissions occurrence and trade-offs for reduced environmental impacts. The work examined the impact of direct-injected high reactivity fuels (HRF) and port-injected Biogas at various inert gas (carbon dioxide, CO2) rates (25 � 45 vol), biogas fractions (40 � 70), speeds (1600 � 2000 rpm), and loads (4.5 � 6.5 bar IMEP) on emissions of RCCI engine, experimentally. The findings revealed that while engine speeds greatly decreased CO (carbon monoxide) and NOx (nitrate oxide) emissions with rising unburned hydrocarbon (UHC) regardless of HRF employed, higher engine load significantly reduced UHC emissions. Diesel-biogas reduces NOx emissions and performs better in reducing CO and UHC emissions at lower speeds than B5-biogas, except in low-level loads. Although increasing CO2 impact led to a reduction in UHC and CO emissions, the biogas proportion was the most significant variable. The main factor influencing increased NOx emissions was engine load, which is inversely correlated with reduced NOx and increased particulate emissions owing to high CO2 content and biogas proportion. The premixed mode's optimisation outcome confirms the trade-off reduction at 5.5 bar IMEP, 35.586 CO2, and 50 fraction. As a result, running the RCCI engine with direct-injected diesel co-powered in equal proportion with high-CO2 biogas cuts the emissions trade-off dramatically, limiting the environmental repercussions of the emissions. © 2024 The Institution of Chemical Engineers
