Abstract:-

Urban air pollution from transportation, especially two-wheelers, is a growing concern in metropolitan areas of developing countries such as India. This review, titled An Exhaust Gas Analysis from Two-Wheeler: A Review, synthesizes recent literature on emission measurement techniques, advances in internal combustion engine exhaust gas analyzers, and the role of alternative fuels. It examines conventional and modern emission-measuring devices, including wireless sensor implementations and Internet of Things enabled systems that provide real-time remote monitoring. The review also surveys studies on biodiesel and ethanol blends in two-wheeler engines, assessing their impacts on regulated pollutants and overall exhaust characteristics. Comparative analysis highlights strengths and limitations of existing instruments and identifies gaps where newer sensing technologies and data-access methods can improve accuracy and accessibility. Based on the literature synthesis, the paper defines clear objectives for future research: standardizing measurement protocols, integrating low-cost IoT sensors for urban monitoring, and evaluating biofuel strategies to reduce emissions. The review aims to guide researchers and policymakers toward effective mitigation of transport-related air pollution.
