Nowadays waste plastic is a big problem worldwide. To counter that problem pyrolysis process can be used, which
is converting the waste plastic into the waste plastic oil. To use waste plastic oil as an alternative fuel is good option in place
fossil fuel. Here study the effect of exhaust manifold on the performance of CI engine. Taguchi method is used to reduce the
experiment run and it helps to get best result in short time. Experiments have been performed according to L18 orthogonal
array were take 18 rows and 4 columns at 3 factors with 4 parameters.Selected parameters are Compression ratio, Blend,
Load and Exhaust manifold, base on this parameter analyse the Brake thermal Efficiency, Specific Fuel Consumption, Fuel
Consumption, Mechanical Efficiency. 10° exhaust manifold used with (18, 17, 16) compression ratio, (100D0B, 50D50B,
0D100B) Blend, (2, 7, 12) Load. Here get the best combination of the parameters which give the best result of Brake Thermal
Efficiency, Specific Fuel Consumption, Fuel flow and Mechanical Efficiency.
