Diesel Technology Alignment

    The Fuel

    • Sulfer content in diesel fuels renders the exhaust control devices inefficient. New fuel-refining technology reduces the sulfur content in fuels by 97 percent, thus increasing the efficiency of exhaust control devices and significantly reducing emissions.

    The Engine

    • Diesel engines represent a more efficient design for fuel combustion when compared to gasoline engines. Gas engines use spark plugs to ignite gasoline and diesel engines use compression technology. Compression technology is cleaner and more efficient.

    The Exhaust

    • With less sulfur content, new exhaust treatment systems work better in further reducing emissions. Particulate traps are one such treatment system. The traps work similarly to catalytic converters in car engines. As the exhaust gases pass through the traps, it reduces emissions by 80-90 percent.
