Energy utilization from renewable sources plays a vital role to meet the demands of theclean environment. Commercialization of biodiesel is comparatively less than the otheralternative sources due to its suitability and yield. In this paper, it is focused on performance and emission characteristics of cotton seed and hexanol oil biodiesel and in blended withcerium oxide as an additive. The blending proportion was made as B10, B15, B20, and100% Diesel. The testing was performed in Single cylinder four stroke diesel engine. The Performance characteristics were obtained in between the brake power withspecific fuel consumption and emission characteristics such as HC CO and NOXand other gases. It was observed that the combination of B15 proportion with CeO2 blendproduces effect results with other blends in specific fuel consumption and reduced emissionbehavior.
