Environment For Our Next Future Generation
The pursuit of cleaner, more efficient engines has given rise to numerous innovative technologies. From Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valves to Direct Injection (DI) engines and Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs), the landscape of engine technology has evolved dramatically under the influence of stringent emission regulations. However, despite their environmental merits, these technologies often face challenges from carbon buildup, making it critical to implement robust carbon cleaning measures.
In the quest for decarbonisation, Saarthi Systems, when installed on vehicles, have proven to be a significant game-changer. These systems keep the engines decarbonised as long as they are operational, saving vehicle owners the trouble of frequent decarbonisation every six months.
The Emergence of EGR, DI, and DPFs
The US Clean Air Act of 1970 was instrumental in reshaping vehicle emission standards. This led to the widespread inclusion of EGR valves in automobile designs. Although these valves reduce fuel consumption and lower NOx emissions by recirculating exhaust gas, they are prone to carbon buildup, causing the valves to stick or clog tubes and exhaust gas channels.
The quest for reduced emissions and fuel economy also led to the adoption of Direct Injection (DI) engines. DI engines, which inject fuel directly into the combustion chamber under high pressure, offer increased power and fuel economy. However, they suffer from a major setback: the lack of gasoline washing over intake valves, leading to the accumulation of carbon deposits.
Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs), introduced due to emission regulation in 2009, are another technology facing issues due to carbon accumulation. These filters collect soot to lower emissions, which is then burnt off at high temperatures. However, this frequent burning and subsequent replacement of DPFs come with a hefty price tag.
The Role of HHO and Knox Systems in Carbon Cleaning
Addressing carbon buildup without resorting to labor-intensive or chemical-intensive methods is key to maintaining engine performance. This is where HHO Carbon Cleaning and Saarthi Systems shine.
HHO Carbon Cleaning uses an HHO Generator to convert distilled water (H2O) into oxyhydrogen gas (H-H-O), which is then introduced into the engine’s air intake. This increases the density of hydrogen in the combustion process, reacting with the carbon buildup and converting it into a gaseous state that is expelled through the exhaust system. This process, taking around 25-45 minutes depending on the engine size, is non-abrasive, using just a quart of water per service.
Saarthi Systems take the process a step further by continuously ensuring that the engines remain decarbonised. The installation of Saarthi Systems effectively eradicates the need for frequent decarbonisation, offering a long-term solution for carbon buildup. This contributes to the performance and longevity of the engine, reducing overall maintenance costs and the potential for engine failure due to carbon accumulation.
The Impact of HHO and Saarthi Systems
The introduction of HHO and Saarthi Systems on both diesel and gasoline engines has led to significant improvements in various aspects of engine performance. From reducing emissions by up to 70% and improving fuel economy by 5-10% to enhancing horsepower by 2-7% and reducing DPF pressure by up to 90%, the benefits are numerous.
Moreover, academic research aligns with these findings. For instance, studies have shown a 9% drop in brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) and a 7% increase in brake thermal efficiency (BTE) when hydrogen is introduced into diesel engines. Emissions of CO, HC, and smoke also reduced by 56%, 16%, and 5% respectively for the Hydroxy-diesel mixture compared to diesel alone.
Conclusion
Emission regulations have undeniably been the driving force behind automotive industry innovations. However, these advancements often come with their own sets of challenges. In this context, HHO Carbon Cleaning and Saarthi Systems offer effective solutions to tackle carbon buildup and sustain the efficacy of these new technologies. The motto of “Clean Engines, Run Better” has never been more relevant as we advance towards a future of efficient, low-emission vehicles.
