As a step towards a future where one doesn’t have to depend on fuel
for cars, three mechanical engineering students of SKR Engineering
College, Poonamallee, have developed a pollution-free vehicle that runs
on compressed air.
The students, D Karthikeyan, R Sakthi and B
Babu, have completed the project, ‘Design and Development of Compressed
Air Driven Vehicle’, under the guidance of V Chandran.
The
maintenance of the compressed air vehicle is much cheaper than
conventional petrol or diesel vehicles since the number of components in
the compressed air driven vehicle are less. The only present problem
for the compressed air vehicles is there is no availability of filling
stations for compressed air.
