Typical Conversion Efficiencies

NOx CO HC Aldehydes
(odor causing)		 PM10
Nil 70-95% 70-90% 70-90% 10-40%
* Less than 50 ppm sulphur in diesel fuel is required for PM10 conversion

Reactions

Carbon Monoxide CO + ½ O2 → CO2 (1)
Gas Phase Hydrocarbons CmHn + (m + n/4) O2 → m CO + n/2 H2O (2)
Liquid Phase Hydrocarbons (SOF) CmHn + (m + n/4) O2 → m CO2 + n/2 H2O (3)
Aldehydes, Ketones, etc. CmHnO + (m + n/4 – 0.5) O2 → m CO2 + n/2 H2O (4)

The diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) is effective for the control of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), odor causing compounds and the soluble organic fraction (SOF) of particulate matter (PM10)

Catalytic Converters for off-Road (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst)

Specifically designed for the rugged demands of heavy-duty off-road vehicles, the MINE-X® catalytic converter helps to improve workplace environmental health and provides compliance with most local regulations requiring anexhaust purifier or exhaust scrubber.

Catalytic Mufflers for off-Road (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst)

The MINE-X® catalytic muffler is designed to replace the original equipment (OE) muffler. The product is installed by simply removing the original muffler and installing the catalytic muffler in its place, utilizing the same pipe connections, mounting points, brackets, straps, etc. The product looks exactly the same as the original muffler and provides the same sound attenuation.

Catalytic Converters and Silencers for Stationary Engines (Below 700hp, Diesel Oxidation Catalyst)

Ideal for small and medium sized stationary engines, MINE-X® catalytic converters effectively reduce engine exhaust emissions, including NOx, CO, hydrocarbons, formaldehydes and particulates. MINE-X® catalytic converters are the industry standard for reliable, long life operation.

Catalytic Converters and Silencers for Stationary Engines (Above 700hp, Diesel Oxidation Catalyst)

QUICK-LID® catalytic converters effectively reduce engine exhaust emissions, including NOx, CO, hydrocarbons, formaldehydes and particulates. QUICK-LID® catalytic converters are the industry standard for reliable, long life operation.

Diesel Particulate Filter – Flow-Through

The MINE-X®Flow-Through Filter is a revolutionary patent pending, flow-through particulate filter that provides effective removal of diesel particulate matter and lower backpressure than conventional wall-flow particulate filters.

Wall-Flow Diesel Particulate Filters

Description

DCL’s CARB verified DPF’s (brand name: MINE-X SOOTFILTER®) effectively remove diesel particles and diesel fumes from diesel engine exhaust emissions.
Description
DCL’s diesel particulate filters are used to meet MSHA standards for particulate matter in underground mines, EPA or CARB mandated standards for particulate emissions in diesel vehicle retrofits, or simply to improve the air quality in a work site containing diesel engines.
See chart for emission control characteristics of DCL’s diesel particulate filters.
For assistance with sizing and selection of the right diesel particulate filter for your needs, contact a DCL applications engineer.

Features

  • Heavy gauge stainless steel construction.
  • Replaces the OEM muffler in most vehicles and includes customized exhaust tube or pipe connections
  • Cordierite or silicone carbide wall flow filter media
  • Quick release clamps for removal of the filter center body Back-pressure monitor with operator indicator light

Applications

  • Our diesel particulate filters work best in post-1994 model year on-road diesel engines, and Tier 1 and higher off-road engines, including construction and mining vehicles, stationary engines and on-road trucks and buses.

Flow Through Particulate Filter

Diesel Particulate Filter (Flow-Through)

Description
The MINE-X®Flow-Through Diesel Particulate Filter is a revolutionary patent pending, flow-through particulate filter that provides effective removal of diesel particulate matter and lower backpressure than conventional wall-flow particulate filters. DCL flow-through, particulate filters are used to meet EPA or CARB standards for particulate reduction or simply to improve air quality around diesel engines. The MINE-X® Flow-Through Diesel Particulate Filterremoves up to 60% Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM) and requires diesel fuel with sulfur content less than 500 ppm and works best with sulfur content less than 15 ppm (ULSD).

For assistance with sizing and selection of the right catalytic silencer for your needs, contact a DCL applications engineer.

Features
  • Heavy gauge stainless steel construction.
  • An alternating tapered network of flow through channels consisting of corrugated metal foils and metal fibre fleece
  • Can be configured to exactly the same dimensions as the original vehicle muffler
  • Can be configured as a universal catalyst or a universal muffler for retrofit onto the vehicle
  • Installs and operates like a conventional Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC)
Applications

The MINE-X® Flow-Through Diesel Particulate Filter can be used in aboveground diesel engine applications. It is ideal for retrofit on diesel engines where a wall-flow particulate filter is unsuitable, including light duty cycle, older and two-stroke engines.

Harvard Fleet Management Services, in conjunction with the Harvard Green Campus Initiative, is conducting a trial of the MINE-X®, flow-through DPF.
