Soudagar et al.; dairy scum oil with biodiesel and GO as additive (biodiesel and biodiesel + GO) 20, 40, and 60 ppm biodiesel BTE is less compared to diesel but increased when GO is added, which reduces ignition delay and improves thermal exchange process reduced compared to biodiesel when GO is added as GO acts as a fuel catalyst decreased when GO is added, due to better atomization of fuel decreased due to higher oxygen concentration similar to diesel but found highest for GO 60 ppm, due to high viscosity and flame temperature reduced when GO is added up to 40 ppm, due to larger surface-area-to-volume ratio of GO (39)
Hoseini et al.; biodiesel with GO additive (3-biodiesel + 3- GO) 30, 60, and 90 ppm increases due to GO catalytic activity, which reduces ignition delay decreased due to increase of cetane number decreased due to high oxygen content and cetane number that reduced ignition delay decreased due to high oxygen content when GO concentration is increased less compared to biodiesel with the addition of GO   (40)
Khan et al.; biodiesel emulsion with GO additive (biodiesel + 4GO) 30, 60, 90, and 120 ppm increases with increase in GO concentration as GO acts as an oxygen buffer decreased due to GO’s high catalytic activity and reactive surface area decreased due to high catalytic activity of GO, which accelerates combustion decreased as GO enhances oxidation, combustion rate, and calorific value increased due to excess oxygen content in biodiesel and oxygen buffering additive reduced due to high thermal conductivity of GO (41)
Razzaq et al.; palm biodiesel with GO additive (biodiesel + 3 GO) 40, 80, and 120 ppm increases as GO improves ignition delay decreased as GO improves the combustion mechanism due to high thermal conductivity decreases with increase in GO concentration due to its large reactive surface decreased due to excess oxygen content with increase in GO concentration reduced due to the improved ignition delay with the addition of GO   (42)
Hoseini et al.; biodiesel with GO additive (biodiesel + 3 GO) 30, 60, and 90 ppm increased due to decrease in combustion duration and increased heat of evaporation of fuel decreased due to higher latent heat of vaporization decreases due to extra oxygen content as it improves the combustion process decreased due to high cetane number of biodiesel and large surface area for reaction of GO increased due to excess oxygen content and high in-cylinder temperature   (43)
El-Seesy et al.; higher alcohol blends with GO as additive (3 alcohols + 2 GO) 25 and 50 ppm increased due to enhanced cylinder pressure and improved combustion rate decreased due to improved carbon oxidation rate decreased due to high oxygen content and shorter combustion duration decreased due to enhanced combustion efficiency and advanced combustion phasing increased as the improved combustion process increases the in-cylinder temperature reduced due to GO large surface area of reaction (44)
