Upcoming Air Quality Regulations Funding
Opportunitiesfor ARB-verified Technologies

• Presentation for

Manufacturers Council of the Central
Valley April 2006

MATERIALS HANDLING
CONSTRUCTION
STATIONARY
3

• Technology development applications engineering
  
• Supply niche industrial markets since 1980
• OEM and Aftermarket/Retrofit
• Custom-manufacturing capabilities in USA, Canada
  Europe
• UL-approved, ISO 9001

Emission Control Solutions
Closed-Loop 3-Way Catalyst
Particulate Filter
LPG (LSI)
Diesel (CI)
5
Californias Need

• State Implementation Plan (SIP) federal
  requirement to improve air quality
• (HCNOx) Smog/ozone-causing emissions
• PM Toxic Diesel Particulate Matter

6
CARBs Approach

• Regulatory Activity
• Various equipment types industries affected
• New engines / manufacturers cleaner engines
• Existing engines / operators Fleet Average
• Fuel quality
• Voluntary Projects
• Emission Upgrade Incentive Funding Programs

7
Effect on Operators

• Investments in emissions upgrades
• Options
• new/upgraded vehicles
• new/upgraded engines
• retrofit existing fleet
• remove from service

8
Our Proposal

• Use Carl Moyer Incentive Funding to retrofit
  equipment
• Voluntary emission reductions- ahead of the
  regulations
• Must be surplus- Moyer will not pay to meet a
  regulation
• Up to 100 rebate for all hardware/labor costs
• Based on engine model year and HP, annual hours
  of use, project life years, retrofit technology
• Moyer pays maximum 14,300 per ton of (HCNOx) or
  PM reduced

9
The Catch

• Act quickly to ensure surplus reductions Moyer
  eligibility
• Minimum 3-year project life
• Commit to annual hours of operation
• will be based on normal/expected usage
• Simple annual reporting
• vehicle is still in use and hours used in the year

10
LSI Standards Fleet Average Requirements
11
TermiNOx

• 3-Way Purimuffler (catalytic muffler)
• closed-loop air/fuel ratio controller (ECU)
• Upgrades open-loop engines to current state of
  technology available from OEMs
• Available since mid-1990s- CO reduction/OSHA
• 10-20 reduction in fuel consumption
• CARB funded approx. 150 retrofits throughout
  California (ERC project) prior to verification

13
ARB Verification

• First only ARB-verified LSI retrofit (Dec. 9,
  2005)
• 1.0 g/bhp-hr (NOxHC)
• exceeds proposed 2016 Fleet Average requirement
• gt 90 (HCNOx) reduction
• Eligible for Carl Moyer funding

14
The Proper Fit for Every Application

• Product specific to truck, engine and fuel system
• Not a generic/universal fit
• Optimized ECU Program (emissions and drivability)
• Direct-fit muffler replacement (no exhaust system
  modifications needed)

15
Retrofit Expenses
16
Cost-Effectiveness Example

• 60HP engine, 3-year project
• _at_1200 hours/year 4,855 / ton (HCNOx)
• _at_500 hours/year 11,653 / ton (HCNOx)

17
In-use Off-road Diesel rule

• Currently in development stages at CARB
• No regulation yet, therefore eligible for Carl
  Moyer funding

18
Diesel Projects

• Catalytic converters (DOC) 20-40 PM reduction
• typical hardware cost 750 - 2000
• also reduce CO and diesel smells by up to 90
• Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) gt85 PM
  reduction
• typical hardware cost 3,000 - 15,000
• no black smoke emissions
• combine with DOC for CO/smell control
• Evaluation of application needed to select
  product type

19
Summary

• CARB-verified proven technologies for
  LPG/gasoline and diesel equipment
• Carl Moyer funds available now
• up to 100 rebate
• comply ahead of the regulations
• Existing customer support networks
