QU researcher successfully finds way to stop pollution emitted from diesel engines

The Problem

Emissions from diesel engines are considered a major source of pollution worldwide. The smoke emitted from diesel engines is extremely harmful to human health as it causes dangerous diseases like cancer and asthma, and dangerous to the environment, causing climate alteration. The challenge is to find a way to eliminate pollution caused by diesel engines.

The Solution

QU researchers developed a tube that is connected to diesel engine exhaust, which contains enough water to capture all the carbon particles emitted from diesel engines.
Like the phenomenon of rain and soil in nature, Clear Exhaust is the first project that works on eliminating 100 percent of smoke emission from diesel vehicles. The technology that currently exists only eliminates 40% of the smoke.

Our goal for Clear Exhaust is to have it fixed on all moving and still diesel engines worldwide, with the aim of having a clean and smoke-free atmosphere.
