https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-981-15-3631-1_5 This blog deals with chemical reactions of nitrogen oxide formation at higher temperatures, when the stable nitrogen disintegrates and forms unstable compounds. It discusses the effect of the unstable nitrogen compounds on human health and environment. To meet Bharat Stage VI norms, which will be implemented in the year 2020, NOx reduction techniques such as alteration in engine operation, changes in engine design, alteration in fuel, after treatment of exhaust have been discussed. Focus on after treatment of exhaust gas, by use of selective catalytic reduction, with problems of urea decomposition, and the effect of further higher temperature on urea was given. Properties of diesel exhaust fluid and factors affecting NOX reduction such as droplet size, droplet behaviour, urea decomposition, urea deposits, injector positions, vaporization rate, and mixer designs are also discussed. Test method to obtain the best dynamic or st...
