The Comparison of Dry And Wet Capture (Washing With Drinking Water) to The Soot Particles Emissions From The Diesel Engine

Abstract

The aim of the research is to reduce the emission of the soot patticles from diesel power generators through the design of the After Treatment system and to compare the dry and wet filtering process within the proposed filtering system. The filtration process is based on a new design of HydroCyclonic, Each process has the efficiency of capturing the soot particles for the maximum loading rate of the diesel engine from soot (1200 mg / m3) , for dry filteration achieved the efficiency of the capture of soot particles by about 8% using cyclone  while the efficiency of soot capture within the wet filteration process was increased by washing with drinking water (mist) between [35 - 90%] for a loading rate of [0.025 - 0.6 L / m3], respectively.
