Clean Diesel Technologies Announces Availability of Licenses On LOE-NOx Urea-to-Ammonia Conversion Process; Notice of Allowance Received from U.S. Patent Office.Business Editors STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 28, 2001 Clean Diesel Technologies Inc. (EBB:CDTI CDTI Centro Para el Desarrollo Tecnológico Industrial (Spain) CDTI Cockpit Display of Traffic Information CDTI Common rail Diesel Turbo Injection CDTI Commercial Driver Training Institute (Pakistan) ) (CDT CDT abbr. Central Daylight Time CDT Central Daylight Time CDT n abbr (US) (= Central Daylight Time) → hora de verano del centro; (BRIT ), today announced that it has been issued a Notice of Allowance from the U.S. Patent Office on its LOE-NOx(TM) urea-to-ammonia conversion and delivery process. This process allows the safe conversion of urea-based reagents to ammonia for injection into selective catalytic reduction Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) is a means of removing nitrogen oxides, often the most abundant and polluting component in exhaust gases, through a chemical reaction between the exhaust gases, a (reductant) additive, and a catalyst. (SCR (Sequence Control Register) See program counter. ) nitrogen oxide (NOx) reduction systems installed on diesels, turbines, boilers and process heaters. By controlling the urea injection rate into a heated and pressurized pres·sur·ize tr.v. pres·sur·ized, pres·sur·iz·ing, pres·sur·iz·es 1. To maintain normal air pressure in (an enclosure, as an aircraft or submarine). 2. reactor, urea is converted into ammonia for subsequent injection into exhaust gases upstream of a SCR catalyst. The process is principally targeted at stationary power generators, but could also be used in mobile and marine SCR applications. The LOE-NOx urea conversion process allows close-coupling of reagent injection to the SCR catalyst without catalyst fouling from unconverted liquid urea and without the hazards associated with storing large quantities of ammonia. In this process, the ammonia is generated onsite from safe urea on an as-needed basis. CDT expects to commercialize the LOE-NOx urea conversion process through non-exclusive license arrangements. Licenses should be of interest to SCR suppliers, pollution control technology companies, urea reagent suppliers and electric utilities.
