increasing demand of fuel day by day its consumption and hazards cause serious intensive attention isrequired for this problem. Also an Improvement of fuel properties is essential for suppression of pollutant andoptimization of engine performance. One way is use of additives. Oxygenated additives were conventionallyrecommended for gasoline. But now days oxygenated additives are widely considered for diesel fuel. These additives canalso be used in combination with diesel. There are number of additives are available for diesel fuel. On the basis ofdifferent experimental investigations by the researchers ,this paper reviews about Di-ethyl Ether (DEE) as oxygenatedadditives mixed with diesel blends and compares its effect on performance and exhaust gas emission of compressionignition engine.Engine performance can be significantly improved when the di ethyl ether is blended diesel. Hence diesel can be blendedwith di ethyl ether to increase the brake power, thermal efficiency, volumetric efficiency as well as mechanical efficiencyand reduce the emissions. Experiment is carried on COMET PPW-5A a vertical, single cylinder, water-cooled, fourstroke Diesel engine for experimental set-up. Then diesel engine will be converted into dual fuel engine by modificationin engine and using different percentage of blend. We Had measure performance and emissions of dual fuelled enginewith various speeds and loads. The experiment had carried on 10%, 20%, and 30% blending of DEE with diesel.
