Abstract

This paper presents the results of a study that was carried out to determine the emission levels of engines of switch locomotives used in Ukraine and the compliance of the engines with existing and future standards. Test results showed that none of the engines tested fully complied with United States Environmental Protection Agency and European Union standards. An experimental investigation to evaluate some of the emission reduction technologies for oxides of nitrogen, such as optimization of operating characteristics and injection timing retardation, was also conducted.
