The current study has concentrated on discovering and developing clean alternative energy sources like biodiesel and employing novel methods to reduce harmful emissions and enhance engine performance behavior. The consumption of biodiesel in diesel engines reduces the emissions from the tailpipe, but some researchers claim that it actually produces more NOx pollution than engines that run on regular diesel, which limits the use of biodiesel. In this study, Ricinus communis biodiesel was generated through transesterification process, and its fuel properties were assessed. The employ of biodiesel in diesel engines minimize exhaust emissions; however, multiple investigators claim that the consumption of biodiesel generates greater amounts of nitrogen oxide pollutants than diesel-fueled engines, which limits the possibility of biodiesel usage. In the present investigation, the combined influence of an antioxidant (tert-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ)) additive introduced to the fuel alteration method and SCR (selective catalytic reduction) as an after-treatment approach on NOx diminution in a Ricinus communis biodiesel -fuelled CI engine was investigated.The antioxidant stabilizer together with the SCR approach substantially decreases the pollutant of NOx by 86%, with a small rise in HC and CO pollutant caused by the addition of antioxidant as additives to Ricinus communis biodiesel and aqueous urea solution introduced at the tailpipe gasses without a significant drop in BTE and BSFC.
