But, because the nation still has more than 11 million old diesel engines without
proper emission control technology, black carbon remains a serious health and environmental threat.
Offered in Europe, the new engine is substantially cleaner than its predecessor thanks to Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)
active emissions control technology allowing it to meet even more stringent rules than the ones applicable for the Euro 6d TEMP emissions standard.
The implementation of BS VI fuels will enable the use
of emission control technologies like diesel particulate filters (DPF) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems thanks to the low sulphur content.
The program encourages policies and practices to eliminate unnecessary public school bus idling, uses upgrading («retrofitting») buses that will remain in the fleet with
better emission control technologies and / or fueling them with cleaner fuels as well as replaces the oldest buses in the fleet with new, less polluting buses.
A University of Texas study found last year that natural gas wells leak methane at about the rate reported in U.S. Environmental Protection Agency methane emission inventories, and the leaks can be contained
with emissions control technology.
All major OECD economies have dramatically reduced fine PM and BC emissions from heavy - duty diesel vehicles through a combination ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel and
diesel emission control technologies; there is up to a 99 per cent removal efficiency with diesel particulate filters.
Air quality improvements will continue as states add even
more emission control technologies to achieve ozone standards set in 2008 under the National Ambient Air Quality Standards program.
ULSD paved the way for advanced, sulfur - intolerant
exhaust emission control technologies, such as catalytic diesel particulate filters and NOxcatalysts, which are necessary to meet the US» current, stringent emission standards.
But the sole basis provided for repealing the CPP is a legal one: according to the proposal, the Clean Air Act (CAA) provisions on which the Obama EPA relied only allow EPA to
regulate emission control technologies at individual power plants and don't authorize broader strategies like shifting from coal to natural gas and wind or solar.
Without
suitable emissions control technology applied to coal wood etc.; the environmental impact renders an uninhabitable environment anyway with unbreathable air and undrinkable water.
To calculate possible benefits of policy action, the study provides «maximum feasible reduction scenarios» that take into account the incorporation of
emissions control technologies such as seawater scrubbers that absorb sulfur dioxide emitted during the burning of diesel fuel.
The system is paired with Kia's Selective Catalytic Reduction
active emissions control technology that reduces CO2 emissions by up to four percent on the new Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), and up to seven per cent on the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC).
Starting the fall of 2009 Mercedes will also add a BlueTEC model with the world's
best emission control technology: the 350 BlueTEC develops 211 hp and meets the EU6 exhaust emission standards planned for 2014.
«It's a combination of cleaner fuel, advancements to the engine, and the use
of emissions control technology,» says Allen Schaeffer, executive director of the Diesel Technology Forum, an organization supporting the use of clean diesel technology.
«The important thing now is that the new $ 30 million
emission control technology to be installed will ensure those already low liquor burner emissions are cut by a further 90 to 98 per cent.»
Delivering 136 metric horsepower and 320 Nm (236 lb - ft) of torque between 2,000 rpm and 2,250 rpm the new «U3» diesel powertrain replaces the 1.7 - liter CRDi unit and complies with the strict Euro 6d TEMP emissions standard thanks to the use of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) active
emissions control technology.
Designed to go beyond the stricter limits laid down by the latest Euro 6d TEMP emissions standard, the new U3 1.6 - liter CRDi (common - rail direct injection) uses Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) active
emissions control technology to reduce emissions.
The new engine employs Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) active
emissions control technology to reduce emissions.
The new engine employs Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) active
emissions control technology to significantly reduce emissions.
The EcoDynamics + diesel mild - hybrid system is paired with Kia's Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) active
emissions control technology, reducing CO2 emissions by up to 4 % on the new Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), and up to 7 % on the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC).
From autumn 2009 the V6 diesel will also be available as a BlueTEC model with the world's best
emission control technology.
Designed to go beyond the stricter limits laid down by the latest Euro 6d TEMP emissions standard, the new «U3» 1.6 - litre CRDi (common - rail direct injection) uses Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) active
emissions control technology to significantly reduce emissions.
