PRCI CPS-1 Program Emissions Control for Legacy Reciprocating Engines. Goals: Identify cost effective modifications to older integral engines to reduce nitrous oxide (NO x ) rather than replace the engines and validate the performance improvements to confirm continued operation. - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

TRANSCRIPT

PRCI CPS-1 ProgramEmissions Control for Legacy

Reciprocating Engines

Conclusions: The work produced cost effective solutions that have:

• Significantly lower capital requirements to reduce NOx emissions

• Better fuel consumption – produces less CO2 emissions• Wider operating range• Better reliability

Goals: Identify cost effective modifications to older integral engines to reduce nitrous oxide (NOx) rather than replace the engines and validate the performance improvements to confirm continued operation.

Key outcomes: Technologies were developed that were 1/6 to 1/3 the replacement cost of the engines.• Improved combustion stability – lower stresses on the engine• Lower fuel consumption than replacement engines
