Results for tag: "Exhaust Gas Recirculation"

Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) is a technology used in exhaust systems and components to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from internal combustion engines. It works by recirculating a portion of the exhaust gas back into the engine intake, which reduces the amount of oxygen available for combustion and lowers the peak combustion temperature. This reduces the formation of NOx, which is a major contributor to air pollution. EGR systems are used in a variety of applications, including passenger cars, light-duty trucks, and heavy-duty vehicles. EGR systems are becoming increasingly important as governments around the world continue to tighten emissions regulations. Many automakers are investing in EGR technology to meet these regulations and reduce their environmental impact. Companies in the EGR market include Bosch, Delphi, Continental, Denso, and Johnson Matthey. Show Less Read more
