| particulate filters for diesel engine exhaust While diesel engines offer better fuel economy, long-term durability and lower greenhouse gas emissions than gasoline engines, concerns are growing about the environmental and health hazards posed by their exhaust emissions. Corning?s diesel particulate filters are being used worldwide to control particulate emissions from many diesel-powered urban buses, trucks, forklifts, locomotives and other vehicles. Corning innovations help create cleaner diesels As emissions requirements evolve, Corning scientists continue to advance ceramic filter technology. Our new Corning DuraTrap?RC diesel particulate filter applies advanced design to enhance durability, while significantly reducing the amount of soot emitted by medium and heavy-duty diesel-powered trucks and buses. Designed for use in medium- and heavy-duty trucks, the DuraTrap?RC diesel particulate filter provides consistent filtration efficiency of 90 percent or greater to help reduce soot emissions. The Corning DuraTrap?RC filter has been designed to have a higher cell density and thicker walls, which creates a higher mass body and ultimately leads to a more thermally durable filter. | |
