Abstract
Abstract
This study aims at determining the level of exhaust gas opacity and fuel consumption using a centrifugal particulate matter reducer in a diesel-engine inspection train. The opacity level was tested using a smoke tester and fuel consumption measurement per 30 seconds. The test was carried out by varying the types of diesel fuel including Bio-solar, Dexlite, and Pertamina Dex. Based on the test results, there is a decrease in exhaust gas opacity for the use of Bio solar and Dexlite fuels by 5.75% and 6.3%, while the type of Pertamina Dex gained an increase of opacity by 0.6%, respectively. Besides, it was an escalation of fuel consumption in Bio-solar and Pertamina Dex by 7.7% and 2.7%, respectively, while Dexlite did not change the amount of fuel consumption.
