Abstract: This paper is based on the general overview about previous research papers to improve the performance and emission characteristics of an IC engine using different ceramic coating and biodiesel blend. In the modern world automobile manufacturer industry may not produce an effective performance of IC engine. Because of the major reason is, when the friction would be developed at the high speed working condition of an IC engine. Due to this mechanical components are piston, connecting rod, cylinder head, valves and crankshaft are mainly affected and reduced the life span. However it is very difficult to avoid this problems but minimize the problem based on applying the different ceramic coating on the surface of mechanical components, also improve the emission characteristic and reduce the specific fuel consumption of an IC engine by using an effective biodiesel.
