Abstract
Emissions from diesel vehicles are the main concern of air pollution-related deaths worldwide. Its impacts are growing in most of the developing nations especially India, in spite of the regulatory limits. In 2016, the Indian government declared that the nation would skip the Bharat Stage (BS) V norms completely and adopt progressively stringent BS VI norms by 2020 in which the level of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) emissions will be reduced by 89 and 50%, respectively, from BS IV norms. Consequently, the exhaust control technologies will play an important role to achieve these reduced NOx and PM levels. The existing strategies to combat abatement of NOx and PM emissions would not be able to resolve these issues. This chapter provides an insight and suggests the ways and means to achieve BS VI emissions standards by the Government of India.
