BOSCH HDI EDC 15C2 INJECTION SYSTEM AND PARTICLE FILTER

A - DEPOLLUTION

Fuel combustion causes the emission of the following pollutants:

• carbon dioxide (CO2),

• carbon monoxide (CO),

• unburned hydrocarbons (HC),

• nitrogen oxide (NOx),

• carbon particles.

Antipollution regulations are being tightened up and lead to the following

developments:

• installation of an exhaust gas recycling device (EGR) to reduce nitrogen oxide

emissions (NOx) (water cooled),

• installation of a throttle housing (EGR) to improve exhaust gas recycling.

Fitting a catalytic converter reduces the following pollutants:

• carbon monoxide (CO),

• unburned hydrocarbons (HC),

• carbon particles.

Fitting a 16 valve cylinder head reduces the following pollutants:

• nitrogen oxides (NOx),

• carbon particles.

The dual intake air inlet ducts in the cylinder head help to reduce pollutant

particles.

The filter system removes black smoke and pollutant particles at full load or

during transitory operation, thus helping to protect the environment.
