Abstract
Carbon dioxide is a major cause of natural calamities and changes in climatic conditions. Of all the sources of emission, the amount of carbon dioxide from automobiles is approximately 65%, which is more than any other sources of emissions. Raise in carbon dioxide content in atmosphere is causing global warming which is evolved from greenhouse gases. To reduce the emission and control of carbon dioxide percentage in atmosphere form automobiles, theoretical and practical methods of adsorption of carbon dioxide using activated charcoal (carbon) in diesel operated engines is conducted. Charcoal is one of the best adsorption material due to its high pours valve and capture capacity, when reacted with other reagents in order of activation, it increases its adsorption capacity than that of regular charcoal. In this project the activation of charcoal is steam activation. The amount of carbon dioxide exhausted from diesel engine in ideal condition and after the reactor chamber is added to the exhaust system the content of carbon dioxide is controlled up to 9.266%.
Highlights
Carbon dioxide is the one of the gases in atmosphere bearing percentage of 0.04, it plays an important role in maintaining optimal condition of earth by enriching photosynthesis in plants and other benefits, but it has become a major issue in the recent decade due to its increase in percentage leading to increasing the global temperature, which causes melting down of glaziers and increasing water levels, heavy changes in temperature
Carbon dioxide is the primary greenhouse gas emitted through human activates, the main activate that emits carbon dioxide is the combustion of fossil fuels for energy and transportation, sustain industry process and land use changes emit carbon dioxide
Activated charcoal will be placed inside this shell
Summary
Carbon dioxide is the one of the gases in atmosphere bearing percentage of 0.04, it plays an important role in maintaining optimal condition of earth by enriching photosynthesis in plants and other benefits, but it has become a major issue in the recent decade due to its increase in percentage leading to increasing the global temperature, which causes melting down of glaziers and increasing water levels, heavy changes in temperature. Human sources are fossil fuel usage, land use changes and industrial process. Carbon dioxide is the primary greenhouse gas emitted through human activates, the main activate that emits carbon dioxide is the combustion of fossil fuels (coal, natural gas and oil) for energy and transportation, sustain industry process and land use changes emit carbon dioxide. Since the industrial revolution began around 1750, human activity has contributed substantially to the climatic change by adding carbon dioxide and other heat trapping gases to atmosphere. When the engine displacement is high the consumption of fuel is high Catalytic convertor is another major part which plays an important role in the exhaust system, the process of oxidation and reduction of on dangerous gases emitted from the exhaust gases, there are major break through which helps in improving the performance of catalytic convertor without any changes their properties, like back pressure and flow of gases [6,7]. The coated sample was heated treated in furnace for 14 hours at 85oC
