The main objective of this research is to reduce diesel engine emission when operated with animal fat (waste chicken skin) biodiesel by using a Cu–ZSM5-coated catalytic converter in the exhaust. By this, the usage of diesel will be reduced and also costly catalysts that were employed in the catalytic convertor can be eliminated. The reduction in the emissions such as hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), and oxides of nitrogen (NOX) when the engine is fitted with a laboratory-made Cu–ZSM5-coated catalytic convertor was superior to the commercially available catalytic convertor. At 4.3 kW brake power, the emissions values of HC, CO, and NOX recorded for CSO40 blend in the engine fixed with laboratory-made Cu–ZSM5-coated catalytic convertor was found to be 9.8%, 5.2%, and 11.23% lesser than the commercially available catalytic convertor. Around 34.91% of smoke emissions were reduced for the 40% of Chicken skin biodiesel in the diesel which indicates that the smoke formation reduced with the addition of biodiesel blends in diesel for all engine loads.
