Stage V Exhaust Emission Certified Diesel Engines for Marine and Hazardous Area Applications

多年来，柴油发动机的排放一直因各种错误的原因登上头条。新的法规已经看到了更清洁、更高效的柴油发动机在公路和越野市场的所有应用中的发展，现在要求发动机配备后处理系统，以进一步减少有害排放。由于该项目解决了几个技术挑战，有两个市场尚未采用该技术。主要的原始设备制造商还没有开发这项技术，因为他们没有看到市场的全部潜力，或者看不到进行这项开发所需的投资回报。这两个市场分别是五级船用发动机和五级危险区域发动机。欧盟法规2016/1628要求所有设计用于内河航道（湖泊、运河和河流）的新船和改进型船舶符合第五阶段标准。然而，目前在我们的发动机平台尺寸上还没有配备后处理的Stage-V发动机。我们的项目是生产一系列符合船舶入级法规的发动机，以便船舶可以用更清洁的v级发动机建造或重新动力，以满足英国和欧盟市场的内河航道法规，同时符合或超过其他全球法规，如美国环保署。危险区域的应用使用没有后处理的发动机，因此不符合当前的排放法规。设备制造商表示，发动机技术无法使他们的设备达到v级排放所要求的危险标准。我们可以开发并将这些发动机推向市场，与英国制造商合作，为该项目开发和调整技术，以及我们的内部知识，专业知识和测试设施。这两个市场都面临着一些复杂的技术挑战，这些挑战既相似又不同，因此它们适合共同努力，以最大限度地提高投资回报，并使英国在该技术方面处于领先地位。英国在这些市场仍然非常活跃。危险的发动机应用出口到世界各地的几个英国OEM。我们预计到2-3年的销售额为800万英镑，在英国的销售和出口都很强劲。我们将在英国工厂用捐赠的发动机生产这些发动机。这些销售将为当地提供技术岗位，并支持英国供应链的制造业和创新增长。同时减少这些应用产生的废气排放，改善空气质量。

The emissions from diesel engines have been in the headlines for some years for all the wrong reasons. New regulations have seen the development of cleaner and more efficient diesel engines in all applications for on-road and off-road markets, which now require the engine to be fitted with aftertreatment that reduces harmful emissions even more.There are two markets where this technology has not been adopted due to several technical challenges addressed in this project. The major OEM's have not developed the technology as they do not see the full potential of the market or cannot see the return on investment required to undertake this development.The two markets are Stage-V Marine and Stage-V Hazardous area engines.The EU Regulation 2016/1628 requires all new and re-powered vessels designed to work on Inland Waterways, (lakes, canals and rivers) to be Stage-V compliant. However, there are no Stage-V engines with aftertreatment available today in our engine platform sizes. Our project is to produce a range of engines that comply with the marine classification regulations so that vessels can be built or re-powered with cleaner Stage-V engines to meet the Inland Waterway Regulations for the UK and EU markets, while complying with or exceeding other worldwide regulations like USA's EPA.The Hazardous area applications are using engines without aftertreatment and so do not comply with current emission regulations. Equipment manufacturers state that the engine technology is not available for them to build their equipment to the required hazardous standard at Stage-V emissions. We can develop and bring these engines to market working with UK manufacturers to develop and adapt technology for this project along with our in-house knowledge, expertise and testing facilities.These two markets both face some complex technical challenges which are very similar yet different, making them suitable to work on together to maximize the return on investment and to give the UK a leading edge in this technology. The UK is still very active in these markets. Hazardous engine applications are exported worldwide by several UK OEM's. We are projecting sales of £8 million by year 2-3, with strong UK sales and exports. We will produce these engines from donor engines in our UK facility. These sales will provide skilled jobs for the local area, and support growth in manufacturing and innovation for our UK supply chain. While reducing the exhaust emissions from these applications and improving air quality.
