The latest from Mercedes for removing the NOx from the emission.

2. GOING GREEN WITH BLUEBLUETEC Diesel Technology Saju S 09MAE038

3. BLUETEC Diesel technology

5. Increase in particulate emissions

6. HC DeNOx as a non-selective NOx reduction method using HC components in suitable catalytic converters.

9. Monolith honeycomb substrate coated with platinum group metal catalyst, packaged in a stainless steel container

10. Porous honeycomb structure that catches the soot as it passes through.

11. Removes a majority of

12. NOx

13. Particulate matter (think black, cough-inducing soot)

16. An advanced NOx storage catalyst (NSC)

17. A particulate filter

19. BLUETEC Diesel technology

21. A particulate filter

22. A catalyst implemented with an SCR coating.

25. BLUETEC Diesel technology The use of a NOx storage catalytic converter for NOx aftertreatment leads to a further impact to the fuel consumption

28. BLUETEC Diesel technology Requires low sulfur diesel (ULSD) Less then 15 ppm. The SCR-technology costs are negatively influenced by the AdBlue tank and dosing system. The SCR-technology requires replenishment of AdBlue at regular intervals. The low freezing point of urea needs adequate measures for winter functioning. NOx storage exhaust-gas aftertreatment processes, will also lead to increased HC emissions.

29. BLUETEC Diesel technology BLUETEC has the cleanest diesel emissions. BLUETEC enabled Mercedes Benz E 320 to meet EURO VI norms already. Customers would benefit from better fuel mileage. It is predicted that the diesel sales will quadruple in the next decade and hence an ultimate solution for NOx emissions 20 to 40% better mileage then gasoline
