New engine architecture from Perkins will help the firm deliver emissions solutions to meet future regulations. In Europe the Stage V requirements are being finalised but Perkins says that it will be ready with its new technology.
New power generation systems are now coming to market that offer lower emissions and cleaner options for customers. Engine technology has improved enormously in recent years, with exhaust emissions from industrial diesels having been reduced significantly. Meanwhile, manufacturers have also introduced new systems that can further reduce emissions while retaining output and performance.
Strassmayr’s latest Blow Patcher, the STP 1010 Joy, allows the vehicle driver to make road surface reparations using only a joystick located within the cab of the truck.
A firm in Canada claims it has the answer to questions over the sustainability of concrete as a construction material. One of the key problems is that the cement used in concrete, is responsible for up to 7% of the world's carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. However Canadian company CarbonCure claims its concrete solution can conquer this catch, allowing concrete construction to become more sustainable.
CarbonCure’s solution is to introduce recycled CO2 into fresh concrete. And according to the firm, this tech
Cummins has revealed a new generation of ultra-low emission diesel engines that have been engineered to meet forthcoming EU Stage V emissions regulations. The engines include F3.8, B4.5, B6.7 and L9 variants with capacities from 3.8-9litre and spanning 75-321kW. Importantly, all have ditched EGR, creating a mechanically simpler package that delivers more power, more torque and lower fluid consumption, said Cummins - while maintaining the same capacity as the engines they replace.
“Removing EGR allowed us
