  2. Diesel exhaust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_exhaust

    Exposure to diesel exhaust and diesel particulate matter (DPM) is an occupational hazard to truckers, railroad workers, occupants of residential homes in the vicinity of a rail yard, and miners using diesel-powered equipment in underground mines. Adverse health effects have also been observed in the general population at ambient atmospheric ...

  3. Diesel exhaust fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_exhaust_fluid

    Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF; also known as AUS 32 and sometimes marketed as AdBlue [3]) is a liquid used to reduce the amount of air pollution created by a diesel engine. Specifically, DEF is an aqueous urea solution made with 32.5% urea and 67.5% deionized water .

  4. Exhaust gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_gas

    Diesel exhaust is the exhaust gas produced by a diesel engine, plus any contained particulates. Its composition may vary with the fuel type, rate of consumption or speed of engine operation (e.g., idling or at speed or under load), and whether the engine is in an on-road vehicle, farm vehicle, locomotive, marine vessel, or stationary generator ...

  5. Exhaust gas recirculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_gas_recirculation

    In diesel engines in particular, EGR systems come with serious drawbacks, one of which is a reduction in engine longevity. For example, because the EGR system routes exhaust gas directly back into the cylinder intake without any form of filtration, this exhaust gas contains carbon particulates. And, because these tiny particles are abrasive ...

  6. Diesel particulate filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_particulate_filter

    Cordierite Diesel Particulate Filter on GM 7.8 Isuzu. Unlike a catalytic converter which is a flow-through device, a DPF retains bigger exhaust gas particles by forcing the gas to flow through the filter material before exiting; [2] [29] however, the DPF does not retain small particles.

  7. Rolling coal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_coal

    A lifted Ford F-450 "rolling coal" (blowing large clouds of dark grey diesel smoke). Rolling coal (also spelled rollin' coal) is the practice of modifying a diesel engine to deliberately emit large amounts of black or grey diesel exhaust, containing soot and incompletely combusted diesel.

  8. Diesel Emissions Reduction Act - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_Emissions_Reduction_Act

    The National Clean Diesel Campaign focuses on the health of Americans due to the exhaust emissions from diesel engines; specifically nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. It includes regulations for new diesel engines, voluntary programs for the existing diesel fleet, diesel emission reduction technologies and strategies, and current ...

  9. Electronic Diesel Control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Diesel_Control

    The mechanical fly-weight governors of inline and distributor diesel fuel injection pumps used to control fuel delivery in diesel engines under a variety of engine loads and conditions could no longer deal with the ever-increasing demands for efficiency, emission control, power and fuel consumption. These demands are now primarily fulfilled by ...
