Fuel injection is getting increasingly sophisticatedFuel injection is getting increasingly sophisticated
•There is much work on using injection shape control to reduce PM and NOx and improve fuel economy.
•30% reductions in NOx and PM and 5% reductions in fuel consumption due to pilot injections and rate shaping.

Fine particle number distributions from a common rail Fine particle number distributions from a common rail HDD engine vary with increasing injection pressureHDD engine vary with increasing injection pressure
EPA SAE 1999-01-1141 7.9 liter, 144 kW engine Scanning mobility particle sizes (SMPS) showed minimal effects of
dilution ratio from 50:1 to 560:1.
At low load, increased injection pressure creates more fine particulates.
At high load greater injection pressure keeps distribution the same, but decreases the numbers at low RPM and increase them at high RPM.

Low Load: VGT drops NOx 45% at baseline fuel consumption.

Filters reduced PM by more than 99% by number at all load points
Filters reduced CO by 40%, HCs by 85%, and NOx by 25%. No secondary emissions were formed
Considering reform fuel and fuel additives, filters had the greatest impact on reducing PAHs. New lubricants, catalysts, and engine controls are also effective in curtailing PM

Continuous Regenerating Trap
– NO is first oxidized to NO2: NO + 1/2 O2 = NO2
– The NO2 then oxidizes the soot: 2NO2 + 2C = 2CO2 + N2
– Net: one pollutant eliminates the other
NOx/soot ratios are important

JMI CRT System is very effective, but JMI CRT System is very effective, but requires low-S fuel and min. NOx/C requires low-S fuel and min. NOx/C
A minimum NOx/PM ratio of 8:1 was determined to be needed for CRT operation. It is generally available over most of the operating range.

Choice of CNG Engine management technique is Choice of CNG Engine management technique is critical to controlling emissionscritical to controlling emissions
High CNG NOx due to insufficient lean operation at high load. Early mixer type engines
High CNG NOx due to insufficient lean operation or ignition retard.
Closed-loop stoichiometric TWC reduces CNG emissions. Fuel economy suffers
• Depending on CNG engine management strategies, CNG may have higher NOx levels or fuel consumption then diesel.

•Two years ago, only one supplier of “City Diesel”. Now, the UK is going low-sulfur across the country. Price differential is 1.4p/liter.
•On old engines, City Diesel and Oxidation catalysts go a long way.
•On newer engines, City Diesel and the CRT were very clean.

Economics - Diesel is $20,000/yr/bus cheaperEconomics - Diesel is $20,000/yr/bus cheaper
No CNG retrofits are feasible
– need to replace significant numbers of vehicles to see impact
– two fuel services will be needed
Infrastructure costs are high
– $40,000 to $60,000 per CNG bus incremental difference; clean diesel may be $2000 to $5000
– $500,000 (10 buses, 2-3/hr refueled) to $5,000,000 (200 buses, 30/hr refueled); clean diesel requires low-sulfur fuel - marginal infrastructure
Operating costs are higher
– -10% vs. +50% more equivalent energy; +35% typical
– +15% more maintenance
$50,000/yr/bus for CNG vs. $30,000/yr/bus for diesel; amortization and overhead

SummarySummary
Diesel engine technologies have come a long way, and have significant potential
Diesel after-treatment technologies can make diesels as clean or cleaner than CNG
Clean diesel technologies are much cheaper than CNG and can be retrofit or purchased new
California is well-positioned to take advantage of clean diesel technologies, with emerging supply of low-sulfur fuel
