ARANGO GOMEZ, Jorge Eduardo; SIERRA VARGAS, Fabio Emiro  e  SILVA LEAL, Vladimir. An exploratory analysis of existing research on internal combustion engines operating with biogas. Tecnura [online]. 2014, vol.18, n.39, pp.152-164. ISSN 0123-921X.

Abstract The methodologies and applications on the use of biogas technology in the world appear in many scientific research studies on the issue of efficiency, combustion and emission control in internal combustion engines. The present analysis is a survey of current cutting-edge biogas engines. The survey includes engine development and every-day applications and also identifies some of the operating parameters and behavior of such pieces of equipment, whose operation relies on spark ignition, combustion, and compression ignition. The findings point to a considerable improvement in engine performance and also demonstrate the importance of further research on the use of biogas in internal combustion engines, which can be used in processing power e.g. energy supply for current demand and the need to optimize worldwide use of engines. This appears to be vital when thinking about the engine and its adjustable parameters in order to improve standard performance.

Palavras-chave : engine combustion; emissions; compression ratio; gas mixture; biogas; efficiency.
