EXHAUST ODOR AND SMOKE EMISSION FROM DIESEL ENGINES AND THEIR CONTROL

This paper analyzes the different types of diesel emissions and examines the effect of various operating parameters on the nature and composition of diesel exhaust pollutants. Diesel exhaust test results show that it is less harmful than the invisible exhaust from gasoline-powered engines of automobiles. In the case of diesel engines, the major problem is the repulsive color and odor of the exhaust. The author considers several methods for the control of diesel smoke and odor.
