Summary

In future Diesel engines will continue to represent the predominant drive system for commercial on-highway and off-highway applications. During the last few years development efforts in engine technology were mainly geared towards complying with the increasingly demanding legal emission limits all over the world. Significant improvements in NOx and PM emissions in the range of 95 % were achieved on the basis of comprehensive system solutions comprising optimized combustion systems, exhaust-gas after-treatment concepts, and efficient air and injection systems. Common-rail and exhaust-gas after-treatment systems made by BOSCH have contributed significantly to this progress. The tightened CO₂ emission legislation expected for the future represent another challenge for development engineers eager to create intelligent and cost-effective overall system solutions.
