NO SUB X STUDIES WITH EMD 2-567 DIESEL ENGINE

Effectiveness of several methods for reducing oxides of nitrogen (NO sub x) emissions from a two-cylinder version of an EMD series 567C locomotive engine is discussed. The effectiveness of a particular method was determined by the amount of NO sub x reduction achieved, the observed effect of other emissions constituents and engine power, and the ease and potential expense with which the method could be implemented.
