Diesel Engine Emissions Control

Application Summary

Application

Diesel Engine Emission Control

Description

The use of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) to remove NOx from the exhaust of diesel engines

How It’s Used

A gear pump is used to inject Urea into the exhaust of the diesel engine. The Urea combines with the exhaust and converts the NOx to nitrogen and water in the catalytic converter

Key Feature

Smooth flow, Freeze Resistant, Rugged

End Equipment

SCR modules for diesel emissions control

Pump Function

Dosing

Fluids

Urea (30% Ammonia in water)

Flow Rate

10 to 100 mL/min (0.16 to 1.6 USG/hr)

Differential Pressure

<116 psi (<8.0 bar)

Applications Overview

To meet diesel engine manufacturers are turning to Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR). SCR is an emissions control system that injects liquid urea into the catalytic converter in the exhaust stream of engines. The urea converts the NOx into harmless nitrogen and water.

Gear pumps are used to deliver urea under pressure to a nozzle in the exhaust stream. Gear pumps provide the smooth flow and precise flow control required for this application.
