Exhaust gas temperature of diesel engine is higher compared with a petrol engine and also creates higher pollution in the environment. Exhaust gas recirculation system and many other systems have used for reuse of exhaust gas to improve the performance of diesel engine, but the use of diesel engine for production of potable water production is still unattended by the researchers. The main aim of this research work is to use the waste heat of exhaust gas for potable water production from the low capacity desalination system integrated with evaporator and condenser unit. In this work, single pass evaporator and water cooled condenser used for evaporation and condensation of saline water were designed and fabricated by locally available materials. The experiments were performed on a 10 HP Diesel engine with varying the load to get potable water. It has found that, 4.2 Liter/hr of potable water is obtained from the exhaust gas without varying the performance of the engine. Also, it has found that, temperature of saline water is heated more than 70 degrees Celsius in the condenser unit.

In this research work, a surge tank is developed and utilised in the diesel engine for controlling the NOX emission. This surge tank acts as a damper for fluctuations caused by exhaust gases and also an intercooler in reducing the exhaust gas temperature into the diesel engine intake manifold. With the utilisation of the surge tank, the NOX emission level has been reduced to approximately 50%. The developed surge tank is proved to be effective in maintaining the circulation of water at appropriate temperatures. A trade-off has been established between the engine performance parameters including the brake thermal efficiency, brake specific fuel consumption, exhaust gas temperature and all emission parameters including HC and CO.

Abstract This paper presents optimization of selected combined diesel engine-steam turbine systems. Two systems: the system combined with waste heat one-pressure boiler only and its version containing additionally low-pressure boiler proper feeding degasifier and the system of two-pressure cycle, were taken into considerations. Their surplus values of power output and efficiency associated with utilization of waste heat contained in piston engine exhaust gas were compared to each other. For the considerations two high-power low-speed engines were taken into account. The main engines of comparable power of about 54 MW produced by Wartsila and MAN Diesel & Turbo firms, were selected.

In this study, energetic based fluid selection for a solid oxide fuel cell-organic rankine combined power system is investigated. 9 dry organic fluids with varied critical temperatures are chosen and their corresponding ORC cycle performances are evaluated at different turbine inlet temperatures and exhaust gas temperature (waste heat source) from the upper cycle. It is found that actual ORC cycle efficiency for each fluid strongly depends on the waste heat recovery performance of the heat recovery vapor generator. Exhaust gas temperature determines the optimal fluid which yields the highest efficiency.
