Argonne white paper outlines battery and R&D requirements for electric aviation

Green Car Congress

A new white paper published by the Argonne National Laboratory Collaborative Center for Energy Storage Science (ACCESS) outlines a clear set of battery requirements and research and development needs to accelerate the commercialization of electric propulsion for aviation—from air taxis in the near term to 737 class aircraft in the long term.

Amminex City-SCR upgrade delivers gaseous ammonia for improved SCR conversion of NOx; avoiding high off-cycle emissions

Green Car Congress

The technical reason for these high “off-cycle” NO x emissions is poor NO x conversion efficiency of installed SCR systems when exhaust temperature is low. A block of AdAmmine holds ~450g ammonia per liter solid for use in the NO x conversion. At low exhaust temperatures, catalyst activity also falls off sharply.

MECA report finds additional NOx emission reductions from new heavy-duty trucks achievable and cost-effective

Green Car Congress

Manufacturers continue to optimize diesel emission controls, such as DOC, DPF and SCR, in order to promote uniform catalyst coating, improve NO x conversion efficiency, reduce back pressure on the engine, and reduce thermal mass. Better catalysts and urea dosing systems can achieve high NOx conversion during lower temperature operation.
