Engine Testing (Retrofit & NOx Research)

Eliminate perceived barriers to engine manufacturer/aftermarket catalyst manufacturer acceptance of biodiesel blend with the expectation these blends will be fully warranted by the original equipment manufacturers while improving air quality. This will be done to the greatest extent possible through engine and aftermarket catalyst performance and durability tests and real world fleet operations employing these technologies.
