Abstract :
A light-duty truck diesel engine fueled with DME using a jerk-type in-line DME injection system which meets the JAPAN 2009 emissions regulation was developed. It includes lower exhaust emission technology such as a large exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system with air-throttled and inter-cooled turbo-charging. The National Traffic Safety office, Environment Laboratory and BOSCH Corporation have demonstrated low-emission engines which reduce NOx emission levels to about 50% of the 2009 emissions regulation without a NOx reduction catalyst system.
