There are three main types of vehicle emissions: exhaust, evaporative, and crankcase. Exhaust emissions are produced during fuel combustion and include carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and hydrocarbons. Evaporative emissions occur when gasoline vapors escape into the air through fuel evaporation processes like refueling, engine heating, and the hot soak period after the vehicle is turned off. Crankcase emissions leak from the gap between the cylinder and piston ring and contain blowby gases mixed with oil. Devices to control emissions include catalytic converters, which convert toxic gases into harmless gases, exhaust gas recirculation systems, which lower combustion temperatures to reduce nitrogen oxide formation, and positive crankcase ventilation systems.

AUTO – MOBILE EMISSION CONTROL.
There are three different types of auto
1) Exhaust – Emission : due to combustion of fuel
Produce’s CO, CO2, NOX
2) Evaporative – Emission:
emissions occur through several ways.
Refueling: gasoline vapors are always present in fuel tanks. These vapors are forced out
when the tank is filled with liquid fuel.
Running Losses: The hot engine & exhaust system can vaporize gasoline when the car is
running.
Hot Soak: The engine remains
are continues.
2) Crankcase– Emission: Leakage of combustion gases to engine occur due to gap between
cylinder and piston ring produced gases which contain liquid oil called blowby gases.
AUTO – MOBILE EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES.
The Following devices are used to control
Catalytic Converters.
Exhaust Gases Recirculation (EGR) System.
Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) System.
Fuel Evaporative Emission Control (EVAP) System.

1) Catalytic Converter :
It’s a device used to reduce the
combustion engine.
A catalytic converter is placed inside the tail pipe through which deadly exhaust
gases containing unburnt fuel, CO, NOX, are emitted.
The function of catalytic converter is to convert these
(such as CO2, N2, O2) and water.
Types Of Catalytic Converters:

2) Exhaust Gases Recirculation (EGR) System.
The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system's purpose is to
contribute to air pollution.
This keeps combustion temperatures below 1500 degrees
the reaction between nitrogen and oxygen that forms NOx.
Exhaust gas recirculation reduces the formation of NO
exhaust gas to "leak" into the intake manifold.
3) Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) System.
