GasOxidizer - Conversion of Sulphur Components by Oxidation - Datasheet

The importance of examining the oil consumption of internal combustion engines has increased during the past years, because it is an important factor for the design and the test of engines. The topicality of the subject “oil consumption” is primarily a result of the present and future environmental developments. The hydrocarbon emissions are raised directly by oil components reaching the exhaust gas. Indirect effects of the oil consumption on the gaseous emissions of internal combustion engines can be explained primarily by changes of the emission control system. Additives in the oil can work as catalyst poison when being a component of the exhaust gas and thereby affect negatively the conversion rate and the life span of the catalyst. Likewise, oil droplets reaching the exhaust gas at a cold start can diminish the catalyst function and cause increased emissions. By this, particularly the emissions of NOx (nitrous gases) are increases by a catalyst impaired by oil consumption.
