Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. (CDTI) Receives Expanded California Approval for Emissions Reduction System

Clean Diesel Technologies is a global manufacturer and distributor of emissions control systems and products focused on the heavy duty diesel and light duty vehicle markets. One of the company’s main products is its ECS purifilter brand emission reduction product.

The company today announced that the California Air Reources Board (CARB) has expanded their approval of Clean Diesel’s ECS Purifilter emission reduction product to now include larger control devices aimed at heavy duty on-road vehicle engines up to 16 liters and 625 horsepower. This market will include not only heavy duty trucks, but also municipal vehicles as well as school buses.

This approval is a key development for the company. It further increase the number of vehicle engines that the company is approved to retrofit. Clean Diesel estimates that a CARB regulation will require well over 100,000 heavy duty diesel trucks to either be replaced or retrofitted over the next few years.

The CARB regulation applies to a variety of diesel-fueled trucks and buses. Its purpose is to reduce emissions from in-use trucks and buses in order to meet federally mandated clean air standards and to reduce the adverse health effects from truck and bus pollution. The mandate requires all heavier 1996 to 2006 vehicles (over 26,000 pounds) be retrofitted with diesel particulate filters.
