Clean-Diesel Retrofits

Clean-diesel practices include the use of ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel or other clean fuels and retrofits with technologies such as particle filters and oxidation catalysts.

Existing Idle Reduction Technologies
While the best way to keep our air clean is to shut off diesel engines when vehicles are not in motion, there are clean-diesel technologies that can be installed on trucks, buses, school buses and off road construction equipment such as bulldozers, backhoes, etc. Most of these technologies provide an alternate source of power, allowing engines to be turned off and producing savings in fuel and maintenance.
The Department of Environmental Protection makes no claims as to the effectiveness or operation of these products.  This listing is for informational purposes only.
