Liquid Level Sensors for AdBlue/ Diesel Exhaust Fluid
Why there is such a demand. Off-highway vehicle manufacturers have to comply with increasingly stringent emissions legislation. The chief objective of which is to reduce NOx gases, hydrocarbon gases, and particulate matter (PM) released from the exhaust of diesel engines.From the first emission standard, Euro I, to the current iteration, Euro VI, engine design changes have seen NOx levels and PM ...

On-road tests show gas trucks up to 5 times worse for air pollution
Trucks powered by liquified natural gas (LNG) pollute the air up to five times more than diesel trucks, according to on-road tests commissioned by the Netherlands government. The results fly in the face of truckmakers’ claims that gas trucks cut nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by more than 30%.[1] [2] Transport & Environment (T&E), which today publishes the test results, ...

Maritime emissions treatment system (METS)
In January 2014, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) began enforcement of the "Airborne Toxic Control Measure for Auxiliary Diesel Engines Operated on Ocean-Going Vessels At-Berth in a California Port" Regulation, commonly referred to as the At-Berth Regulation. Covering all six ports in California, the At-Berth Regulation requires a 50% reduction in emissions from auxiliary diesel engines ...

Reducing the cost of emissions testing – Case Study
In the early 1970¹s, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was formed in response to growing concern about air quality. The EPA developed emissions regulations that targeted the carcinogenic impact of engine exhaust, and set tough regulatory standards for manufacturers to develop cleaner engines. Engine makers needed an instrument that could accurately measure the quantity of ...

Particulate partial flow sampling
The sampling method of the Sierra Instruments Model BG-3 sets the standard for engine particulate emissions measurement protocols of the future sierra instruments In a study at West Virginia University, evidence showed that the Sierra Model BG-3 partial-flow system is equivalent to full-flow CVS. At the August 2008 DEER conference, the university’s Dr Ben Shade presented a paper evaluating ...

Black Soot, Diesel Exhaust and Indoor Air Quality
What do diesel exhaust particles, black soot, carbon black and diamonds have in common? Answer: They are all forms of the element, Carbon! While diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, diesel exhaust particles and black soot surely aren’t. It’s the difference between black (Carbon) and white (Carbon)!!! We’ve all seen black smoke belching from big rigs on the highway. Some ...

Pegasor Mi3 - Background - Particle size is not well defined
Fine and nanoparticles can be defined in many ways. Especially when defining the particle size and concentration. Particle size can be measured either off-line or on-line. Off line techniques typically give out particle filter mass concentration. Off-line techniques are seldom used to define particle size. When this is done, electron microscopy is typically used to measure particle geometric ...

HeatBlocker CoolWrap Exhaust Insulation on a Mobile Crane for the Construction Industry - Case Study
The temperatures of exhaust streams from diesel-powered construction equipment are often elevated to ensure effective operation of diesel particulate filters, in which collected soot is combusted. As a result, these exhaust systems can become extremely hot, endangering operating personnel and potentially elevating heat deterioration of nearby engine components. This was the problem presented to ...

Manufacturing facility cleaning case study
The Challenge A large Industrial manufacturing facility found that their process used to perform the necessary tasks was creating an undesirable accumulation of heavy metals dust throughout the entire plant. Not only was this a potential health risk to the plant workers, there was a structural and safety problem because the dust could spark and cause a fire or explosion. The Enviro-Vac Solution ...

Fuel dilution in engine crankcases: A fast field method for the workshop
What is fuel dilution and why is it a problem? Fuel dilution in oil is a condition caused by excess, unburned fuel mixing with engine oil in an engine crankcase. Hydrocarbon-based fuel, usually with a lower vapor pressure than the lubricant, has a thinning effect, lowering the oil viscosity. Oil film strength is reduced, increasing the cylinder liner and bearing wear. Reciprocating engines ...

Water contamination in fuel: cause and effect
Water exists in three physical states and depending on the surrounding conditions it finds its way to the fuel systems like the high pressure common rail (HPCR) fuel systems on diesel engines. The important point thereafter is to provide the best possible on-engine protection by securing the fuel injector systems from severe damage. As the environmental challenges and emission regulations become ...
