SCR Systems for On-Road Applications
| Sub-Grantees: | Engine Control Systems, Limited
|
In Phase I, the significant NOx reduction capability of the developed urea SCR system would be demonstrated on heavy duty trucks operating within the Houston- Galveston-Brazoria and/or Dallas-Fort Worth non-attainment regions. Specifically, the proposal will focus on Class 8 trucks equipped with engines in the nine (9) to thirteen (13) liter displacement category that are commonly used in short haul distribution / delivery fleets. Trucks within these refuse, fuel and commercial goods distribution fleets typically accumulate a minimum of 50,000 miles per year to over a 100,000 miles per year. The goal of the Phase 1 is to demonstrate durability in excess of minimum requirements of EPA verification. In phase II of the proposal, specific SCR units would be recovered under a defined schedule and undergo verification testing under the EPA’s Environmental Technology Verification Program (ETV) route to formal EPA verification. The test plan is hoped to provide the basis for broad EPA verification. In phase III of the proposal, the SCR system would be commercialized in the state.
