The amount of pollutant gases in the atmosphere has reached a critical state due to an increase in industrial development and the rapid growth of automobile industries that use fossil fuels. The combustion of fossil fuels produces harmful gases such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen monoxide (NO), soot, particulate matter (PM), etc. The use of Dimethyl Ether (DME) biofuel in diesel engines or other c...

In this study, we investigated the effects of canola oil biodiesel (BD) to improve combustion and exhaust emissions in a common rail direct injection (DI) diesel engine using BD fuel blended with diesel. Experiments were conducted with BD blend amounts of 10%, 20%, and 30% on a volume basis under various engine speeds. As the BD blend ratio increased, the combustion pressure and indicated mean ...

In order to clamp down on the illegal use of fishing boat fuel A (FBFA) and to reduce exhaust emissions in Taiwan, the residue from a desulfurization unit (RDS) and pyrolysis fuel oil (PFO) were added into FBFA with the ratio of 0.5% to form two new blended fuels (RDS0.5 and PFO0.5). The appearances of fuels from dark to light are RDS0.5, PFO0.5, and FBFA. The two new fuels have higher viscosit...

in this study the performance and emissions characteristics of a heavy-duty, direct injection, compression ignition (ci) engine which is specialized in agriculture, have been investigated experimentally. for this aim, the influence of injection timing, load, engine speed on power, brake specific fuel consumption (bsfc), peak pressure (pp), nitrogen oxides (nox), carbon dioxide (co2), carbon mon...

multidimensional modelling of open-cycle process of om355 engine was developed. calculations for computational mesh were carried out. the results of the model were validated by experimentally measured in-cylinder pressure and the good agreement between calculations and measurements approved the trustworthy of numerical code. results included pressure, temperature, emission and rate of heat rele...

The exhaust emission standards in force various parts of the world for off-road vehicles are becoming more and stringent. Therefore, research on compounds harmful fumes emitted by this category is constantly being researched activities aimed at limiting them carried out. basic problem terms measuring emissions approval tests traction vehicles, which out engine dynamome-ters. it impossible to ob...

Rockets are the only direct anthropogenic emission sources into the upper atmosphere. Gaseous rocket emissions include CO, N2, H2, H2O, and CO2, while solid rocket motors (SRM) additionally inject signi¦cant amounts of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) particles and gaseous chlorine species into the atmosphere. These emissions strongly perturb local atmospheric trace gas and aerosol distributions. Here, t...

Pollution from motor vehicles constitutes a major environmental health problem. The present paper describes associations between diesel and gasoline engine emissions and lung cancer, as evidenced in a 1979-1985 population-based case-control study in Montreal, Canada. Cases were 857 male lung cancer patients. Controls were 533 population controls and 1,349 patients with other cancer types. Subje...
