Vitesco Technologies, formerly (until September 2019) the Continental Powertrain Division, has won a major contract from an European vehicle manufacturer for the supply of innovative electric heating elements for diesel catalytic converters. In the extremely slow “Traffic for London” cycle, NO x emissions fell by 62%.

Researchers from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia and Imperial College London have designed an active control turbocharger consisting of a mixed-flow turbine with pivoting nozzle vanes to adapt to the pulsating exhaust flow. Results of their study showed that engine power increased by between 3.58% and 7.76% between 800 and 1400 rpm.

Siemens and the Vietnam Motors Industry Corporation (Vinamotor) are launching the first hybrid bus with a combined electric/diesel drive in Hanoi. The buses consume up to 50% less fuel and reduce exhaust emissions by the same amount. The project is the first of its kind in Vietnam. Vinamotor hybrid. Click to enlarge.

The Azipod D requires up to 25% less installed power. This is partly due to the fact that the new hybrid (air and water) cooling helps reduce the thruster’s weight and directs more power toward propulsion of the ship, not cooling requirements. ABB’s Azipod D propulsion power ranges from 1.6

The direct injection two-stroke engine could be a very promising and interesting option for hydrogen combustion to achieve zero NO x because of its advantages of high-power density and inherent much lower NO x emissions. Achates Power expects close to the same level of thermal efficiency with hydrogen as a fuel. Ignition Source.
