How to reduce black smoke from diesel engines - Diesel Particulate Filters
Written by GenCat's engineering department, this technical white paper aims to address and clarify various issues and assist in the decision-making process of reducing black smoke from diesel exhausts.

London Low Emission Zone (LEZ)
The aim of the scheme is to improve air quality in the city by deterring the most polluting vehicles from driving in the area. Phase 4 will commence on 3rd January 2012.

Case Study - Emissions Reduction of Diesel Plant in Confined Spaces
This case study looks at how to reduce black smoke from diesel powered plant operating in confined spaces, in this case underground, in order to protect the workforce from harmful emissions.

Case Study - CO, HC & PM Emission Reduction on a Perkins 4016TAG2
This case study includes information such as pollution reduction figures, pricing of both catalytic converter and particulate filter as well as diagrams for a complete solution.

London Best Practice Guide (BPG)
This guide, published in November 2006 was produced in partnership by London Councils and the Greater London Authority, it aims to control dust and emissions from construction and demolition.

HSE Diesel Engine Exhaust Emissions (DEEE)
Diesel engine exhaust emissions have the potential to cause a range of health problems. This is a short guide for employees to the hazards posed by the emissions, and precautions employers and individuals can take.

Control of Diesel Engine Exhaust Emissions in the Workplace
Produced by the UK Health & Safety Executive, this guidance provides practical advice to employers on how to control exposure to diesel engine exhaust emissions (DEEE's) in the workplace.

Bersy ISO 9001:2000
The Bersy range of exhaust equipment have been employed in Europe for over 20 years and are manufactured in an ISO 9001:2000 plant. The IQNet and RINA certificates are available to download here. As regulations for emission control become more stringent, Bersy has maintained an ongoing development of Diesel Particle Filter (DPFs) and Catalytic Converters.

VERT Certification
The Bersy DPF system is based on a Silicon Carbide filter which is able to retain very fine un-burnt carbon particles including PM10. The filter continuously regenerates during use, with the assistance of a fuel additive. Intended for prime power installations, these systems offer very high particulate matter (PM) retention coupled with low maintenance requirements and have passed the Swiss VERT Filter Testing.
