Introduction to Engine Emission
All IC engines produce undesirable emissions as a result of combustion.
The emissions of concern are unburned hydrocarbons (UHC), carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen
such as nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide (NOx), sulfur dioxide, and solid carbon particulates.
These emissions pollute the environment and contribute to acid rain, smogodors, and respiratory and
other health problems.
HC emissions from gasoline-powered vehicles include a number of toxic substances such as benzene,
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), 1,3-butadiene and three aldehydes (formaldehyde,
acetaldehyde, acrolein).
Carbon dioxide is an emission that is not regulated but is the primary greenhouse gas responsible for
global warming.
Vehicular Emissions
Types of Vehicular Emissions
The fuel loss of vehicles may be due to emissions or refueling. The emissions maybe evaporative or
exhaust emissions. The fuel losses in a vehicle are shown in Fig.
Carbon Monoxide:
It is a product of the incomplete burning of fuel and is formed when Carbon is partially oxidized.
It is an odorless, colorless gas, but is toxic in nature.
It reaches the blood stream to form Carboxyhemoglobin, which reduces the flow of Oxygen in blood.
A rich air-fuel would increase CO; lean air-fuel mixture would lower CO emissions.
Carbon Dioxide:
It is an indicator of complete combustion of the fuel.
Although it does not directly affect our health, it is a greenhouse gas which causes global warming.
Lead:
It is a malleable heavy metal. Lead present in the fuel helps in preventing engine knock.
Lead causes harm to the nervous and reproductive systems.
It is a neurotoxin which accumulates in the soft tissues and bones.
Particulate Matter:
These are tiny solid or liquid particles suspended in gas (soot or smoke).
Particulate Matter in higher concentrations may lead to heart diseases and lung cancer.
Causes of Production of air
Pollutants
Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Hydrocarbon (HC):
Size of combustion chamber: Smaller combustion chambers, allows for more heat to remain inside the
combustion chamber that can aid in the burning of fuel.
Valve overlap: Decrease valve overlap, is used to decrease exhaust emission. A larger valve overlap
increases power but dilutes incoming fuel mixture and requires a richer air fuel mixture at lower engine
speed therefore increasing HC and CO emissions.
Temperature: Higher combustion chamber temperature, are used to reduce HC and CO emissions.
Air-fuel mixture: Leaner air-fuel mixtures help fuel burn better lower HC and CO emissions.
Spark plug: Wider spark plug gaps, are used to burn the leaner fuel mixture and helps prevent spark plug
fouling.
Causes of Production of air
Oxides of Nitrogen (): Pollutants
High isentropic bulk modulus of biodiesel: The high isentropic bulk modulus of biodiesel causes an
artificial advance in injection timing relative to petrodiesel, and higher NO x emissions. However,
Zhang and Boehman found much higher NOx emissions with common rail system, and concluded that
injection timing shift alone could not be the reason for biodiesel NO x effect.
More Stoichiometric Combustion and High Heat Release Rate: Mueller et al. observed increased
stoichiometric burning of biodiesel combustion which could lead to rise in temperature and NO x.
High Adiabatic Flame Temperature: The adiabatic flame temperature of biodiesel is reported to have
slightly higher than petrodiesel due to complete combustion resulting from fuel bound oxygen.

At the edges of the combustion Chamber of System
the engine
(above the piston tops), there is a thin layer of gasoline that
does Not burn up. This gasoline Constitutes an air
pollutant.

This 5-gas analyzer is available with several different options. It includes sensors for: O , CO , CO, HC,
2 2
and NOx. The unit can be upgraded to send the display values to Bluetooth compatible units where it can
be monitored and recorded. Optional PC interface also allows remote display and recording of the data as
well.
Introduction of Norms
The first emission norms were introduced in India in 1991 for petrol and 1992 for diesel vehicles. These
were followed by making the Catalytic converter mandatory for petrol vehicles and the introduction of
unleaded petrol in the market.
On 29 April 1999 the Supreme Court of India ruled that all vehicles in India have to meet Euro I or India
2000 norms by 1 June 1999 and Euro II will be mandatory in the NCR by April 2000. Car makers were
not prepared for this transition and in a subsequent judgement the implementation date for Euro II was
not enforced.
In 2002, the Indian government accepted the report submitted by the Mashelkar committee. The
committee proposed a road map for the roll out of Euro based emission norms for India. It also
recommended a phased implementation of future norms with the regulations being implemented in major
cities first and extended to the rest of the country after a few years.
Based on the recommendations of the committee, the National Auto Fuel policy was announced officially
in 2003. The roadmap for implementation of the Bharat Stage norms were laid out till 2010. The policy
also created guidelines for auto fuels, reduction of pollution from older vehicles and R&D for air quality
data creation and health administration.
Need for uniform emission norms
The practice of limiting improved emissions standards only to a few cities and to a smaller
proportion of urban population has been criticised as violating the fundamental right to healthy life
for all. This also does not allow lorries to move to cleaner fuel and technology and they heavily
pollute cities during transit and aggravate pollution in cities. Many persons and establishments try
to purchase Bharat Stage III vehicles and fuel from outside city limits in order to take advantage of
lower prices, even though these are used in cities.

Comparison between Bharat
stage & Euro norms
The Bharat Stage norms have been styled to suit specific needs and demands of Indian conditions. The
differences lie essentially in environmental and geographical needs, even though the emission standards
are exactly the same.
For instance, Euro-III is tested at sub-zero temperatures in European countries. In India, where the
average annual temperature ranges between 24 and 28 C, the test is done away with.
Another major distinction is in the maximum speed at which the vehicle is tested. A speed of 90 km/h is
stipulated for BS-III, whereas it is 120 km/h for Euro-III, keeping emission limits the same in both cases
In addition to limits, test procedure has certain finer points too. For instance, the mass emission test
measurements done in g/km on a chassis dynamometer requires a loading of 100 kg weight in addition to
unloaded car weight in Europe. In India, BS-III norms require an extra loading of 150 kg weight to
achieve the desired inertia weight mainly due to road conditions here.
