Abstract
The problem of environmental pollution from the C. I. engine automobiles has become a serious concern. Many researchers have done analysis on various techniques that can be used for exhaust emissions reduction. The use of nano-particles is becoming very popular in the area of automobile pollution control due to their small size and special characteristics. Various nano-particles that are used for automobile pollution control include copper, platinum, palladium and rhodium out of which copper is widely used due to its low cost. Catalytic converters coated with nano-particles are emerging as one of the most effective means to reduce the concentration of the exhaust emissions coming out of the tail-pipe of diesel engine automobiles. So, this research paper opens a pathway on the scope of utilization of nano-particles in automobile pollution prevention and control.
