Combustion engines bring a lot of pollution products to human living environment. This study introduced a green engine called free-piston linear engine (FPLE), and performed an evaluation on the pollutant emissions of a diesel FPLE by comparison with a corresponding conventional crankshaft engine (CCE). The combustion reaction and pollutant formation were described by a comprehensive model which considers the special operation mechanism of the FPLE. The effect of dynamic and fuel quantity on the unclean combustion products of the FPLE and the CCE was compared. Results indicate that in the case of the fuel quantity of 7.1 mg condition, the pollutant forming in the FPLE is generally later than that in CCE because of the higher speed of FPLE around the reverse point of stroke, and a significant advantage in nitric oxide (NO) emission is found for the FPLE, although it emits more carbon monoxide (CO) and soot. Moreover, compared with the CCE, the FPLE is cleaner in lean fuel conditions because the NO production of the FPLE is only half of that of the CCE, and that of other pollutants is almost at the same level. However, in heavy fuel conditions, the FPLE shows a disadvantage in CO and soot emission due to the serious afterburning effect and poor oxygen environment in some local areas, although its NO production is still lower than that of the CCE.
