Testing of catalytic converter with exhaust gas recirculation system for diesel engine to reduce pollute gases is chosen for present work. The emphasis is given on hydrocarbon (HC), carbon monoxide (CO) and oxides of nitrogen. The catalytic converter was developed with variations of catalyst plates. Perforated plates of copper and combination of copper oxide and cerium oxide (CeO2 +CuO2) were used as the catalyst. Copper spacer is used in between plates to vary the distance. Secondary air was injected into the converter to aid oxidization of HC and CO. Experimental study was carried out on computerized kirloskar single cylinder four stroke (10 B.H.P, 7.4 KW) diesel engine test rig with an eddy current dynamometer. The converter was tested with various combination of the exhaust gas re-circulation (EGR) system. There are some improvements in the reduction and conversion efficiency of HC & CO. Exhaust gas recirculation has proved to be effective in reducing NOx.

The combustion performance of a conventional rail diesel engine was investigated by measuring the exhaust gas with the respect to the number of injector holes, fuel type, and the use of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), to provide a detailed reduction of environmental pollutants. It was found that a six- or seven-hole injector was more effective than a five-hole injector for reducing the exhaust gas. In addition, the mixing of 20% biodiesel oil with diesel most effectively reduced the HC and NOx contents. The technology generally reduced the NOx and CO contents of the exhaust, but had no significant effect on the HC and CO2 contents.

Gas Recirculation

Biodiesel such as linseed oil can be derived from the feedstock of vegetables without disturbing supplies of food and the ecosystem. An experimental and comparative analysis was carried out to explore the effect of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and fuel injection pressure (FIP) on the emissions and efficiency of a CRDI diesel engine fuelled with linseed biodiesel/diesel blend. The engine characteristics were calculated using variable EGR (up to 14%) and adjustment of the injection pressure (up to 600 bar) under various load conditions. Multiple regression models were generated to evaluate responses such as Carbon monoxide (CO), Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx), hydrocarbon (HC), Brake power (BP), and Brake thermal efficiency (BTE) using response surface methodology (RSM). For all blends, a combination of FIP and EGR was employed and their impact was evaluated by plotting response surface contour. In RSM, the desirability approach is used to maximize the performance and minimize the emissions parameters of the engine. Linseed/diesel blend ratio 18.3%, FIP 576.76 bar, EGR 7.07%, and load 5.76 kg were estimated to be optimum for the tested engine. From this methodology, it was found that the optimal value of BTE, BP, HC, NOx, and CO is 19.55%, 1.758 kW, 16.7534 ppm, 505.56 ppm, and 0.0676% respectively.

Utilization of biodiesel as alternative fuel results in higher emission of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and reduced performance parameters. Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) is a great technology to control the emission of NOx, but use of EGR reduces the performance parameters of diesel engines. Oxidative addition and magnetization of fuel help to make the combustion complete. In the present investigation, Jatropha biodiesel has been used with diesel in the form of a blend having 20% biodiesel (BD20) as fuel in 4-stroke, direct ignition, diesel engine. 5% Ethanol (E5) has been used as additive along with biodiesel blends and 10% EGR. The magnetization of fuel (MF) has been done with the help of a permanent magnet having strength of 3000 gauss. The results of this investigation show that BD20 is beneficial as fuel for reducing emissions like Carbon Mono-oxide, Hydro-Carbon, and smoke but it reduces Brake Power and Brake Thermal Efficiency. BD20E5 gives better performance parameters than the BD20, but the emission of HC increases slightly. 10% EGR reduces NOx emission with a small cost of performance parameters but with MF performance and emission parameters were improved.
