Abstract :In the present paper, the effect of Gasoline-Like Fuel insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GLF); on emissions was investigated for direct injection spark-ignited engine. The GLF was obtained from waste automobile tires by using the pyrolysis. The tires are installed to oven without any procedure such as cutting, melding etc. Obtained GLF was then used in a four-cylinder, four-stroke, water-cooled and direct injection spark-ignited engine as blended with unleaded gasoline from 0% to 60% with an increment of 10%. Engine tests results showed that CO and HC emissions concentrations in the engine exhaust decrease, while the CO2 concentration increases for blending gasoline-like fuel with unleaded gasoline
Keywords : Gasoline like fuel, waste automobile tires, pyrolysis, alternative fuel
