Bosch announces ‘breakthrough’ in diesel technology

April 25, 2018 By administrator

German auto parts supplier Bosch has said it has developed a new and cleaner exhaust technology that will end the current debate about dirty diesels. The company said customers could buy the new system soon.

Bosch said Wednesday it had developed a new exhaust emissions treatment technology that’s able to cut pollution from health-threatening nitrogen oxides (NOx) to 13 milligrams per kilometer, well below the current legal limit of 168 milligrams and a limit of 120 milligrams as of 2020.

The German company spoke of a “breakthrough,” adding the new technology would cost roughly the same as a sophisticated exhaust filter system included in high-end diesel vehicles.

“This breakthrough offers the opportunity to shift the heated debate over diesel into new territory and hopefully bring it to a close,” Bosch CEO Volkmar Denner said.

According to the company, the technology is good enough to be incorporated into its series production soon. Bosch emphasized the new system would have minimal impact on fuel consumption and performance and would function independently of external factors such as driving style, route and outside temperature.

Combustion engines not yet on their way out

While welcoming the announcement in general, German automotive expert Uwe Wagner told AFP he wouldn’t call the technology in question a genuine breakthrough.

He argued that all the components needed for the new system were already in diesel cars and just needed to be repositioned, with a software update also required for optimization purposes.”

The catalytic converter for instance has to be moved closer to the engine for the exhaust gases to be hotter when reaching the converter as a prerequisite for reducing NOx emissions.

April 2 election ‘technical breakthrough’ in Armenian politics – Republican deputy leader

April 2, 2017 By administrator

By Ani Arami

The monitoring technology employed in the current parliamentary election is a revolutionary breakthrough in terms of ensuring smooth processes, says Armen Ashotyan, a deputy leader of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA).
Speaking to Tert.am, the politician addressed the reports on technical errors, which he said are absolutely logical given the high overload.
“We are among the [few] countries to have introduced an ultra-modern electoral system, which is the best with not only its legal guarantees but also technical solutions. So no wonder at all that some of the thousands of technical devices, [surveillance] cameras and identification devices may not function,” he noted.
Ashotyan, a former minister of education and science, said they observed technical problems only 30 of the over 2,000 electoral precincts (1.5%) but added that most have been now overcome.
In his words, the election is fully line with the democratic requirement to ensure citizens’ right to express their free will.
Ashotyan said he knows that a team of over 50,000 observers, journalists and civil society representatives are involved in the organizational activities to react to possible frauds or distinguish false election rigging claims from true ones.
