IAV develops new close-coupled diesel exhaust gas aftertreatment system for improved emissions reduction

Green Car Congress

IAV has developed a particularly closed-coupled diesel exhaust gas aftertreatment (EAT) system. Under the EU6 standard, diesel engines are still allowed to emit up to 80 mg NO x /km milligrams of nitrogen oxides per kilometer—not only under the legal framework in the cycle but also in respect of increasingly tighter RDE requirements.

ICCT: decline in diesel sales will have negligible impact on attainment of European CO2 emission standards

Green Car Congress

Other technologies—such as efficiency improvements in gasoline engines as well as the rollout of hybrid electric power trains—offer more compelling and cost-effective pathways to reducing CO 2 emissions from European passenger cars, the ICCT says. For instance, hybrid electric vehicles and diesel cars in the small (e.g.,

New Pierburg air blower with speed-controlled motor for reduction of gasoline engine emissions

Green Car Congress

Secondary air systems are used to reduce gasoline engine emissions by accelerating catalytic converter heat-up. Pierburg GmbH has now further developed the associated secondary air blower and provided it with a speed-controlled motor. It thus helps many engines to comply with such standards as EU 6.2, RDE, SULEV 20 or Beijing 6.
