Safety and Environmental Leadership in CV Emissions Clean air issue - diesel particulate matter ArvinMeritor solution - Thermal Regenerator On-demand active regeneration technology Smarts to identify when regeneration is needed Reliable and safe way to remove soot Clean air issue: - NOx emissions ArvinMeritor solution - Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) Meets NOx reduction requirements for Euro 4 and U.S. 2007 Achieves up to 50% conversion of DPM Allows engine to operate with lowest fuel consumption High sulfur tolerance Compact size/low weight


 

Clean air issue - particulate matter and NOx emissions ArvinMeritor solution - Plasma (Hydrogen Assisted Regeneration) Plasma reformate gas is an excellent NOx reductant Enabler to NOx adsorber technology (preferred by EPA) Uses significantly less fuel than conventional regeneration Does not require ongoing refilling of a separate tank Consumes minimal power and provides a fast start-up (less than 2 seconds) Advanced Emission Solutions
