Mixing It Up For SCR (Diesel Progress)
From ACS Industries Inc.
 

 
As the on-highway vehicle industry begins looking ahead to the 2010 exhaust emissions standards, many engine and exhaust system manufacturers are looking at urea-injected selective catalytic reduction (SCR) as a viable option to meet Tier 4 NOx regulations. With the European market readily adopting this technology, and Mack and Volvo announcing SCR as its strategy going forward in North America, a number of manufacturers are developing SCR-compatible products. Among these is ACS Industries Inc., Lincoln, R.I., which is capitalizing on its wire mesh portfolio by offering a noncatalyzed online knitted wire mesh mixer specifically aimed at SCR systems. While the wire mesh mixer is targeted toward dosing applications such as SCR aftertreatment systems that use urea to reduce NOx, it can also be applied in fuel reformers used along with Lean NOx traps and retrofit systems. Using it in an SCR system, said Sivanandi Rajadurai, ACS vice president of engineering, exhaust products, provides a more uniform distribution of urea. “The flow uniformity is maintained because of the wire mesh.

Products & Services
Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems inject ammonia into boiler flue gas and pass it through a catalyst bed where the nitrogen oxide gas (NOx) and ammonia react to form nitrogen and water vapor.
SCR power supplies use silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) topology to provide well-regulated voltage and current output.
Thyristor surge suppressors are semiconductor chips used to protect circuits and devices from over-voltage and over-current.
Wire mesh and cloth consists of metal wires woven or knitted into a grid or screen pattern with openings determined by the mesh size or linear density of wires (wire per inch).
Air hose is used in pneumatic systems and controls, or as supply lines for pneumatic devices and tools.
