Study of Air Pollution Due to Automobile Emission in Ooty
نویسنده
چکیده
Ooty the Head Quarters of Nilgiris Districts has a large Number of commercial and non-commercial vehicles, due to increasing industrialization and Tourism related activities. In this thesis a study was conducted on vehicle pollution in Ooty town to asses pollution contribution from transport sector. Pollution due to auto exhaust has assumed menacing proportion in the developing countries like India, where its contribution is nearly 45% 75 % of the total air pollution in urban areas. The available information about mobile source emission factors has been compiled from different sector in Udhagamandalam. In this study, mobile source emission factor for carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and smoke density for Indian vehicles have been estimated by testing different types of vehicles for their exhaust contents. It is reported from the study undertaken in this work, the emission levels of carbon Monoxide, Hydro Carbons and smoke Density of vehicle made from the year 1961 are within the permissible limits as recommended by the Environmental (Protection) Rules, 1986.

متن کاملUnsuccessful suicide by carbon monoxide: a secondary benefit of emissions control.
Emission systems and devices are required on automobile engines to reduce air pollution problems. Catalytic converters have been used on most 1975 and newer automobiles to reduce hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions to a value that meets the Environmental Protection Agency requirements established for 1975 and 1976. The 1980-1981 Boise, Idaho, study shows that with a functioning catal...
