Diesel engines many are used as transportation mode in the land and sea compared with gasoline engines due to their high efficiency and durability. However, diesel engine releases much more NOx and soot emissions than that of gasoline engine. NOx is formed from a reaction of Nitrogen and Oxygen at high temperature. If these emissions are breathed into human body resulting respiratory disorders such as emphysema and bronchitis as well as lungs tissue damage. Therefore, NOx emissions controll is required to reduce them reaching under a threshold level. An effective method for controlling NOx emissions produced by the diesel engines is by injecting ammonia obtained from urea into selective catalytic reduction (SCR method) system. Ammonia by means of catalyst reacts with NOx forming Nitrogen (N2) and Water (H2O). Therefore, a chance of each ammonia particle to react with each NOx particle is required to consider. A reaction quality between ammmonia and NOx particles can be increased by improving a mixing index. One of the methods to increase the mixing index is by using a dynamic mixer.There are several factors which influence the increase of mixing index. One of these factors is a location of ammonia injector. Since this work is focused on investigating the effect of ammonia injector location on the mixing index of ammonia to diesel engine exhaust gases which content of NOx emissions

Transportation is one of the major contributors to the world’s energy consumption and greenhouse gases emissions. The need for increased efficiency has placed diesel engine in the spotlight due to its superior thermal efficiency and fuel economy over gasoline engine. However, diesel engines also face the major disadvantage of increased NOx emissions. To address this issue, three types of emulsion fuels with different water concentrations (5%, 10% and 15% mass water) are produced and tested. Novel organic materials (glycerin and ployethoxy-ester) are added in the fuel to provide extra oxygen for improving combustion. NP-15 is added as surfactant which can help to reduce the oil and water surface tension, activates their surface, and maximizes their superficial contact areas, thereby forming a continuous and finely dispersed droplets phase. The stability of the emulsion fuels is tested under various environmental temperature for one year, and no significant separation is observed. It is better than normal emulsion fuel which can only maintain the state for up to three months. The combustion process and performance of the emulsion fuels are tested in a four-stroke, four cylinder diesel engine. The results indicate that the water droplets enclosed in the emulsion fuel explode at high temperature environment and help to break up the big oil droplets into smaller ones, thereby significantly increase the surface area of the oil droplets and enhance the heat transfer from hot gas to the fuel. As a result, the fuel evaporation is improved and the combustion process is accelerated, leading to an improved brake thermal efficiency (up to 14.2%). Meanwhile, the presence of the water causes the peak temperature of the flame to drop, thereby significantly bringing down the NOx emissions by more than 30%.

To ensure high quality and productive work of employ-ees, it is necessary to achieve the target parameters of the microclimate and to exclude harmful and toxic substances in the atmosphere of the working area of agricultural prem-ises of a closed volume and air exchange. The main rea-son for the distortion of the air-gas regime of the room is the use of agricultural machines in closed industrial prem-ises (warehouses, storage facilities, livestock facilities, etc.). As a result, there is a decrease in the quality of prod-ucts and working conditions at agricultural enterprises, as well as a reduction in the operational life of structures. To-day, in agricultural machinery, diesel engines are most often used as power units which, unlike gasoline engines are more economical, and also reduce the harmful impact on the environment. But, despite this, the operation of die-sel engines still causes the accumulation of harmful com-ponents in the atmosphere of the room which negatively affects the health of the staff. The analysis of the designs of devices for exhaust gas purificationof internal combus-tion engines revealed the problems that affect the efficien-cy of the purification. The most significant problems are as following: large weight and dimensions, reduced efficiency of the neutralizers when the engine is running at modes close to the nominal ones, and large gas-dynamic re-sistance. To solve these problems, the design of a device for exhaust gas purificationin diesel engines was devel-oped. The use of this utility model will increase the efficien-cy of the device for exhaust gas purification. It will improve the environmental performance of the diesel engine reduc-ing emissions of harmful substances and soot into the at-mosphere.

The rising rate of pollution in urban areas has become a worldwide concern in recent years. Diesel engines are considered one of the largest contributors to environmental pollution caused by exhaust emissions, and they are responsible for several health problems as well. Diesel engines contain carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, unburned hydrocarbons, and oxides of nitrogen. The reduction of Nitric oxides (NOx) emission from diesel engine exhaust is currently being researched by automotive manufacturers. After much research, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology was discovered to be effective in reducing nitrogen oxide emission from diesel engine exhaust. This paper is an attempt to explore the problems associated with the use of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and compares selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with the latest technology named solid selective catalytic reduction (SSCR) for efficient reduction of NOx emission from the exhaust of diesel engines. The issue of contamination, malfunctioning, and freezing of diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) at low temperatures are the major problems associated with the application of SCR. It is observed that by controlling the quantity of ammonia slip, SSCR can give better performance in the reduction of NOx emission from the exhaust of diesel engines.

Abstract Engine efficiency improvement is very critical for medium to heavy-duty vehicles to reduce Diesel fuel consumption and enhance U.S. energy security. The tradeoff between engine efficiency and NOx emissions is an intrinsic property that prevents modern Diesel engines, which are generally equipped with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and variable geometry turbocharger (VGT), from achieving the optimal engine efficiency while meeting the stringent NOx emission standards. The addition of urea-based selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems to modern Diesel engine aftertreatment systems alleviate the burden of NOx emission control on Diesel engines, which in return creates extra freedom for optimizing Diesel engine efficiency. This paper proposes two model-based approaches to locate the optimal operating point of EGR and VGT in the air-path loop to maximize the indicated efficiency of turbocharged diesel engine. Simulation results demonstrated that the engine brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) can be reduced by up to 1.6% through optimization of EGR and VGT, compared to a baseline EGR-VGT control which considers both NOx emissions and engine efficiency on engine side. The overall equivalent BSFCs are 1.8% higher with optimized EGR and VGT control than with the baseline control. In addition, the influence of reducing EGR valve opening on the non-minimum phase behavior of the air path loop is also analyzed. Simulation results showed slightly stronger non-minimum phase behaviors when EGR is fully closed.
