Two proposals were submitted to EPA under Recovery Act Funding for National Clean Diesel Campaign (NCDC)Both for demonstrating “EPA Emerging Technology”

Most of the current EPA or CARB “Verified Technologies” only capable of PM, HC/CO reduction, not NOx

EPA: $20 millions allocated for Emerging Technology under Recovery Act

EPA: Still have $3-4 millions regular funding annually

1. Emissions Reduction by Retrofitting Caterpillar 3500 Marine Diesel Engines with 3500 Emissions Upgrade Group: Field Demonstration of Tier 1 Kit

2. Emissions Reduction by Retrofitting Onroad Diesel Vehicles and Offroad Diesel Equipment with Three Different Types of Emerging Technologies
