At an All India level, for diesel, the retail sales data echoes similar trend where in transport sector, diesel consumption is maximum in HCV/ LCV/ Buses followed by private cars and UVs. In the non-transport sector, maximum International Research Journal of Engineeringconsumption and Technology (IRJET) e-ISSN: 2395 -0056 is in agriculture (tractors) followed by gen-set. This may be Volume: 04 Issue: 3 | March -2017 www.irjet.net p-ISSN: 2395-0072 because tractors are not necessarily used only for agricultural purposes. Today they are also used for commercial purposes, such as for transporting construction material like bricks, stones, mined sand as well as other goods. As cost remains low for using tractors for the transportation of these materials STUDY AND EXPERIMENTATION ON theREDUCTION OF EMISSION IN not only due to lesser fuel consumption, but also because these vehicle enjoy DIESEL ENGINE various exemptions like not having to pay toll on highways.

emission control of vehicle to protect the environment. In order to conquer this problem development of new emission control strategies are required, so the work presented in this paper is to develop the Oxygen Augment Combustion Technology to fulfill ultra-low exhaust emission standards & to serve better atmosphere to the world. By implementing the experiment on vehicle, The Effect of Oxygen Augmentation on the vehicle is measured with smoke meter in which reduction in emission is noticed.

Diesel engine passenger vehicles are expected to increase in popularity. They represent approximately 57.8 % of the new cars sold. [1] Their popularity is due to their high fuel efficiency, which is 30 to 50% higher than that of a gasoline engine with comparable power output. Diesel engines are also used for other application such as generator sets, transportation vehicle, agriculture equipment & other industrial uses. Indian consumption pattern of diesel by transport and non-transport sector for retail sales from 2000 retail outlets in 150 districts across 16 states in each four rounds, spanning a period of 18 months has been presented in the following graph shown in figure 1:
the other handtechniques at an All India level, for petrol, study reveals that 2-wheelers 1.1OnExisting segment accounts for the highest consumption at 61.42%. This is because Themajority mainof existing emission techniques middle-class income populationcontrol including college students prefertoto reduce emissions for diesel engine passenger vehicles are Diesel travel by 2-wheelers, as it is more economical than traveling by car. Whereas oxidation catalysts (DOCs), Diesel particulate filters
(DPFs), Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) & Catalytic converter. From above technologies, catalytic converter is 11 India% Study Sectoral Demand ofvehicle Diesel & Petrolworldwide used in more Report than– All90 ofonpassenger & the use of catalytic converter in U.S is 100 % as per survey. The catalytic converter was first invented by Eugene Houdry in 1950 for gasoline engine & later on further developed by John J. Mooney and Carl D Keith at the Engelhard Corporation creating the first production catalytic converter in 1973 for both gasoline & diesel engine. [2,3] Catalytic converter has proved that it is pure example of invention, innovation, globalization & pioneering due to its emission control ability with high efficiency & long life since 1950, but still it has some negative aspects like Warm up time period, restriction to flow leads to negative effect in vehicle performance, drivability and fuel economy, Catalyst poisoning, Fouling,
The major emission sources of diesel engines are their high nitrogen oxide (NO ) and particulate matter (PM) x
emissions as diesel engines emit low levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrocarbon (HC) pollutants due to engine operation on lean air fuel ratio in terms of the stoichiometry for complete combustion. In order to achieve reduction in emission oxygen augment combustion technology is used.
