Abstract
The increase in the number of motorbikes as a means of transportation results in increased exhaust emissions resulting from combustion of gasoline engines and is dangerous for human health. The use of a Hydrocarbon Crack System is one solution to reduce exhaust emissions in gasoline engines. Hydrocarbon Crack System can perfect the combustion process resulting in low exhaust emissions. The aim of this research is knowing gasoline engine exhaust emissions using the Hydrocarbon Crack System. The research used experimental methods applied to gasoline engine motorbikes with a fuel injection system. Adding Hydrocarbon Crack System is a tool to break down hydrocarbon elements in fuel gas. The use of the Hydrocarbon Crack System in gasoline engines reduces the levels of HC 20 percent and CO 4 percent exhaust emissions at rpm 5500 and above and the exhaust temperature is 215 degrees celsius so that it can maximize the work of the catalyst.
Keywords: Gasoline engine- exhaust emission- hydrocarbon crack system
