Larson Transportation Institute’s Emissions Test
Overview of the Test:
The emissions test conducted by (Penn State Altoona) the Larson Transportation Institute were designed to evaluate the impact of DF5 on the emissions of a dieselpowered 2022 Cummins 6.7L Engine. This test was able to digitally evaluate the environmental footprint of broad based commercial and marine applications using this and other large diesel power- plants with the use of DF5.


testing & findings
Test Procedure and Parameters:
- The test involved a controlled experiment using a large-roll chassis dynamometer to simulate real-world driving conditions.
- Measurements focused on fuel economy (miles per gallon) and emissions output, including carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC), and particulate matter.
Key Findings:
- Significant Emissions Reduction: Notably, there was a 40% reduction in Total Hydrocarbons (THC) emissions with the use of DF5, indicating a substantial positive impact on the vehicle’s environmental performance.
Implications for Diesel Applications
- The results from the Larson Transportation Institute’s test provide strong evidence that DF5 can significantly reduce harmful emissions in diesel engines, a key concern for fleet managers, especially those operating in urban or environmentally sensitive areas.
Implications for Diesel Applications
- The reduction in emissions, coupled with improved fuel efficiency, suggests that DF5 can help fleet operators meet stricter environmental regulations and reduce operating costs.
Conclusion:
The emissions test by the Larson Transportation Institute highlights the environmental benefits of using DF5 in diesel applications. By enhancing fuel efficiency and reducing emissions, DF5 emerges as a valuable addition to commercial operations, aligning with broader goals of sustainability and cost effectiveness.
