EMISSION REDUCTION DEVICES (Multijet engines)
Oxidising catalytic converter
The device converts the polluting substances contained in exhaust gases (carbon oxide, unburnt hydrocarbons and
particulate) into harmless substances, reducing the smokiness and the typical smell of diesel engines.
The catalytic converter consists of a stainless steel metallic casing which contains a wasp nest ceramic body on which
the noble metal used for the catalysing action is applied.
Exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.)
This device recirculates (i.e. reuses) part of the exhaust gases. The percentages depends on the conditions of use of the
engine.
It is used to control nitrogen oxide emissions, when needed.
