Vehicle emissions control

Electrical Vehicle Summary Electrical vehicle technology has been present for a while and is a proven technology that need only reshaping to meet the global need. Though, in the past, the technology had failed to compete with the internal combustion engine due to initial cost, the technology has done well in recent years. Electric vehicle ability to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases, like carbon and carbon dioxide, and the advantages it enjoys, such as low maintenance and running cost, can

With the increase of technological devices, due to decrease of natural energy sources led us to find better solutions in using our precious limited energy. We need to minimise the waste of energy in every area. In this way, it is natural that people work on revolutionary solutions on recovering the energy we lost during the daily routine processes. Regenerative braking system is a good example for that which is a type of energy recovery system that stores the kinetic energy of an object in motion

URBAN ROAD EMISSIONS Toh Xinyi Cindi1 1Undergraduate Student, Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, McGill University, 817 Sherbrooke St. W., xinyi.toh@mail.mcgill.ca Abstract This paper describes how world population growth is the most challenging factor in affecting urban road emissions. As world population grows, urban population has increased leading to greater demands for private motor vehicles due to issues like urban sprawl and the aspirations for owning a motor vehicle. Although

Battery powered automobiles are relatively new within the auto industry. Advancements in battery power technology along with the effect of gas emissions and crude oil prices have made battery power a more possible choice than ever before. Are battery powered cars marketable? That is the question that this research paper intends to answer. If battery power is a marketable alternative to gasoline power, what makes it profitable? Who is the target consumer? With the recent prices of oil, some people

Abstract The Hybrid vehicle concept nowadays is on the path of becoming one of the brightest stars in the foreseeable future. Environmental issues that beset the world today such as Global Warming, entail many long-term negative effects which in turn, must not only be solved through short-term solutions but also be countered with long-term solutions that will benefit not just the future of society, but the future of planet earth and the well-being of its inhabitants. In response to this global

generating stations, industrial and domestic fuel consumption, refuse burning, industrial processing etc. are carbon monoxide (CO), unburned hydrocarbon (UBHC), oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and Lead. An aqua silencer is an attempt mainly dealing with control of emission and noise. The noise and smoke level is considerably less than the conventional silencer, it is cheaper, no need of catalytic converter and easy to install. Table of Contents

for the suffering air quality is Vehicular Pollution which is mainly due to the fuels. This paper mainly intensifies on the use of CNG instead of Petroleum-based fuels like petrol and diesel. It compares all of the above with respect to pollution control as well as the expenses associated with their use to suit the general public. This paper provides the current status of the use of these fuels and their preferences. INTRODUCTION “Normal human activity is more harmful for nature than the greatest

Air Pollution from Vehicles Jacqueline Alcantar University of Phoenix Kieste Mayfield October 24, 2010 Automobiles as well as other mobile vehicles are one of the largest contributors to polluting our air on a daily basis. While these vehicles produce green house gases such as carbon monoxide, they are also contaminating the air with many other air pollutants and air toxins. By finding alternative fuel sources will be one of the solutions to curb the emissions that produce the pollutions. As smaller

Another way to save money with electric vehicles is through the factor of depreciation. Now every car gas or electric will go through depreciation one way or another, but electric vehicles have a lower depreciation factor than gas power vehicles do. For most new gas powered cars they, “will lose approximately 20 percent of its value in the first year and 15 percent each year after that.” (Lander). While with the fully electric “Tesla Model S has a value retention of 83%, 71% and 57% respectively

The Issue: The car manufacturing giant, Volkswagen, admitted to cheating on the emission tests of diesel cars to fall within the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standards. The Concern: Although initial fraud was discovered in the U.S., the larger extent of Volkswagen’s emissions deception affects approximately 11 million cars world wide, producing significantly more air pollution than previously estimated. The concern also arises that throughout the auto industry; potential other companies
