Pongamia pinata methyl ester (PPME) is chosen as alternative fuel for diesel engines. It is renewable and offer potential reduction in CO; HC and smoke emissions due to higher O2 contents in it compared to diesel fuel but higher nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission. Nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the atmosphere cause serious environmental problems, such as photochemical oxidant, acid rain, and global warming. The removal of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from the exhaust of diesel engines is still a very challenging problem even though there have been many studies. Technologies available for NOx reductions either enhance other polluting gas emissions or increase fuel consumption. Injection of aqueous solutions of urea in the tail pipe of a diesel engine fuelled with Pongamia pinata methyl ester (PPME) for the reduction of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) was carried out in a four stroke, single cylinder, water cooled, constant speed diesel engine. Four observations were made for various concentration of urea solution 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% by weight with different flow rates of urea solution as reductant by fitting Marine Ferromanganese nodule as SCR catalyst which improves the chemical reactions. 64% NOx reduction achieved with the urea flow rate 0.60 lit/hr, 30% concentration of urea solution and marine ferromanganese nodule as SCR.
