NOx is a toxic air pollutant coming mainly from the exhaust of diesel-powered engines. It contributes to the formation of smog, ground level ozone, acid rain, and is a significant factor in determining the air quality in urban areas.
It is also related to many respiratory illnesses such as bronchitis, emphysema, asthma and can also aggravate existing heart diseases.
NOx is a problem in our cities mainly due to the large number of diesel-powered trucks and passenger cars throughout the world.
NOx is a problem in our cities mainly due to the large number of diesel-powered trucks and passenger cars throughout the world.
To encourage car and truck manufacturers to find and implement NOx reducing solutions, a number of laws have been passed worldwide, establishing limits for NOx levels in the exhaust.
With our cutting edge technology, we now offer the car and truck industry a new and solid way to reduce the toxic NOx emissions from diesel engines without compromising fuel economy.
We dose precise quantities of gaseous ammonia into the exhaust line, where an SCR catalyst then converts the toxic NOx gasses into harmless nitrogen and water.
The development of our safe, compact and economical ammonia storage and delivery system, now opens up for new ways to accomplish a cleaner urban environment.
