What happens if BS4 fuel is put to BS6 vehicles?
The Petroleum and Natural Gas Ministry has announced that Bharat Stage 6 (BS6) fuel will be available in Delhi from April 1, 2018.
BS6 fuel will be available in the Rajya Sabha Area on 1st April 2019, including Gurgaon, Noida, Ghaziabad and Faridabad. BS6 will be fueled by BS6 vehicles across the country from 1st April 2020.
The automobile manufacturers are making a production of BS6 vehicles in the deadline of the government. However, some firms say that fuel flows do not affect pollution levels.
The chemical content of the petrol from BS4 to BS6 does not differ significantly. But there is a real difference in diesel. In comparison to the existing diesel, the new diesel is low in sulfur. Previously available diesel was 500 ppm (sq.m.) sulfur.The present diesel is 50 ppm of sulfur and is known as low sulfur diesel. There are only 10 ppm of sulfur in BS6 fuel. It's more clean and good for the environment. The engine also works well. There are long-term effects with the use of BS6 fuel on the BS4 engine. The chemical lubrication of the injectors in sulfur diesel engines in fuel helps. Diesel engines rely on injectors to convert the liquid into spray drops. If there is a reduction in sulfur in diesel, there is a problem with the injector. Also smoke emissions will increase.
BS6 cars have additional components in the updated hardware (injector) and exhaust stream that operate from BS6 fuel. For example in the exhaust system there is also a diesel particulate filter and some urea injection. Diesel Particulatory filters need to be changed quickly as a block of high sulfuric old fuel is used in the new engine. In addition, the engine operates less than its efficiency. Affects mileage and overall smoke emissions on the vehicle. The problem with BS4 fuel in the BS6 car is that it quickly becomes known.
What is Bharat Stage?
Bharat Stage and Gas Gas Emission/Pollution Control Criteria. The Central Pollution Control Board earmarks this criteria under the Department of Environment, Forest and Climate. This will change it from time to time. The central government has set this benchmark to control the pollution rate of vehicles.
When was it implemented?
In 2000, the BS benchmark was passed in India in accordance with European standards. In 2005 the BS2 criteria came into force. In 2010 the BS3 criteria were implemented. In April 2016 the BS4 Criterion was brought into existence in 13 major cities, including Bangalore. The Center has ordered that all vehicles in the country be eligible for BS4 standards from April 1, 2017.
What was the rule before BS-2?
In 1991, for the first time in India, the pollution control criteria for petrol vehicles were implemented. Later, in 1992, diesel vehicles were standardized. The catalyst converter was forced into petrol vehicles behind this and introduced into the leadless petrol market.In April 1999, the Supreme Court ordered all vehicles in India to have a Euro 1 or India 2000 standard. But the car manufacturers were not prepared to make this change. Thus, the Euro 2 implementation date was not implemented in the next verdict.
In 2002 the Government of India received a report from the Mashelkar Committee. This report recommended that the implementation of the Euro-based Pollution Control Criteria in India.
It was reported in the report that this criterion was first implemented in major cities and then gradually implemented by expanding to other parts of the country a few years later. The National Vehicle Fuel Policy was officially announced in 2003 on the basis of this report. Later Bharat Stage-3 was implemented throughout the country in October 2010. The BS-6 benchmark is set to be implemented in India by 2020.
