CARB/EPA host SCR Workshop
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) held

White Papers and Opinion Features
Thank you for visiting FactsAboutSCR.com where you can find the latest news and information on Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), a diesel emissions control technology that offers diesel fuel economy and operational advantages while optimizing engine efficiency and reducing criteria pollutants recognized by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to near-zero levels.
With its superior return in both economic and environmental benefits, SCR is also being recognized as the emissions control technology of choice for all manufacturers in the commercial trucking industry, including: Daimler Trucks (Freightliner & Western Star), PACCAR (Kenworth & Peterbilt), Volvo Trucks (Volvo & Mack) and now Navistar (International). Leading engine manufacturers, including Cummins and Detroit Diesel Corporation, have also recognized SCR to be the preferred diesel emissions control technology to meet EPA 2010 standards.
FactsAboutSCR.com will continue to educate, inform and keep you updated as regulations and the market continue develop the infrastructure and technology of SCR.
Click here for interviews with industry experts, who will tell you about the importance of SCR in their own words
Did you know? With even tougher standards on the horizon (and engines to be regulated separately from vehicles), Detroit and Cummins engines using SCR technology are expected to be fully compliant a year ahead of schedule. And by January 2013, those engines will comply with Greenhouse Gas (GHG) 2014 engine requirements.
