COURSE FACULTY
Current automobile technology has matured
significantly over the past few years. Engine
technologies have come across a significant change to
improve the efficiency and cost. At the same time,
world is also confronted with the twin crises of fossil
fuel depletion and environmental degradation.
Indiscriminate extraction and lavish consumption of
fossil fuels have led to reduction in underground-
based carbon resources. This has propelled the
development of advanced engine technologies, which
promise a harmonious correlation with sustainable
development, energy conservation, management,
efficiency and environmental preservation.
With increasing environmental awareness worldwide,
stringent regulations for fuel consumption, and
exhaust emissions, including those for PM
(Particulate Matter) and NOx are evolving. Under
these circumstances, diesel engines would continue to
be attractive because of their low fuel consumption
and high power output however they have to emerge
as clean primary power sources also. Therefore
controlling the total cost of sub-systems that lower
diesel exhaust emissions become a critical issue.
SCOPE OF COURSE
• NOx formation and Control
• Engine exhaust particles in the atmosphere
• UHC, Particulate fuel fraction and PAH emissions
• The lubricant contribution to future low emission
engine design
• Measurement of co-pollutant combustion gases
• Partial Flow Filters
• Diesel Particulate Filters, Fuel borne catalyst for
DPF regeneration
• NOx control using exhaust after-treatment such
as selective catalyst reduction and NOx storage
catalysts
• Oxidation catalysts for VOC, and hydrocarbon
• Continuously Regenerative Traps
• Engine system strategies to meet future on and off
highway emission legislation
• Equipment for Particulate Measurement
academia and industry. Some of the faculty are:
• Dr Tarun Gupta, IIT Kanpur
• Dr A K Agarwal, IIT Kanpur
• Dr Tim Johnson, TSI USA
• Dr. Nitin Labhsetawar, NEERI
Some more from industry are yet to confirm
COURSE STRUCTURE
There will be three lectures every day of 90 minutes
each (five days; 29-3) and this will be followed by
lab experiment demonstration session of two hours
each day (three days; 30-2). There will be a book
exhibition on one evening. The first day of the
course i.e. 28th June will be for the field visit to
Engine Development Directorate, RDSO Lucknow,
Ministry of Railways (Not compulsory).
