Omnitek工程總公司,加州的公司,開發和銷售專有的柴油 - 天然氣轉換系統,西雅圖普吉特海灣清潔空氣機構已經選擇了一個試點項目,以展示其柴油天然氣發動機轉換技術華盛頓州西雅圖港拖運卡車服務,支持端口的清潔卡車計劃。
該項目有拖運卡車服務港海洋集裝箱碼頭的,估計有2000多輛,到2017年為滿足2007年EPA排放標準顆粒物排放的目標。
該公司的柴油天然氣發動機轉換系統是該機構的“試行發動機的升級技術在貨運移動部門”項目下的競爭性贈款過程中最好的技術選擇。omnitek的技術減少微粒的排放,以及氮氧化物和二氧化碳。該試點項目導致由Omnitek工程,包括美國戰略集團,貨運車隊和相關服務提供商。
“轉換柴油發動機使用天然氣貨運運營商提供顯著的投資回報率,降低燃料成本和清潔燃燒。我們期待與普吉特海灣清潔空氣機構和我們的合作伙伴實現的端口西雅圖的清潔卡車計劃,并參加一個滿量程轉換程序的目標工作,“說維爾納·芬克,總裁及行政總裁Omnitek工程。
芬克強調Omnitek的國內柴油天然氣轉換業務上升以來,該公司最近的EPA批準,其技術廣泛線重型Navistar公司DT466E DT530E引擎。該公司還專注于其他柴油發動機模型轉換的機會,擴大在亞洲,拉丁美洲和南美,中國和歐洲的合作伙伴,以配合其國際增長。
“西雅圖已經轉換了垃圾車和機場出租車CNG,因此延長了天然氣的環境效益和經濟效益的拖運船隊西雅圖港,西雅圖港的競爭力保持在超巴拿馬型遠洋時代是一個創新的方法送貨。美國戰略集團總裁斯蒂芬·蘭博說,“我們認為,將現有資產的能力是至關重要的天然氣基礎設施的發展在美國。
蘭博指出,普吉特海灣是一個關鍵的亞洲和美國之間的貨運門戶,一個在三個工作綁在華盛頓州國際貿易。
Omnitek Engineering Corporation, a Californian company that develops and sells proprietary diesel-to-natural gas conversion systems, has been selected by the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency of Seattle for a pilot project to demonstrate its diesel-to-natural gas engine conversion technology for drayage trucks serving the Port of Seattle, Washington, in support of the Port’s Clean Truck Program.
The project has a goal of meeting 2007 EPA emission standards for particulate emissions by 2017 for all drayage trucks serving the Port’s marine container terminals, estimated at more than 2,000 vehicles.
The company’s diesel-to-natural gas engine conversion system was selected as the best technology under a competitive grant process for the agency’s “Piloting Engine Upgrade Technologies in the Freight Mobility Sector” project. Omnitek’s technology reduces particulate emissions as well as nitrogen oxides and carbon dioxide. The pilot project led by Omnitek Engineering includes American Strategic Group, trucking fleets and related service providers.
“Converting diesel engines to operate on natural gas offers trucking operators a significant return on investment, with much lower fuel costs and cleaner combustion. We look forward to working with the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency and our partners to achieve the goals of the Port of Seattle’s Clean Truck Program and participating in a full-scale conversion program,” said Werner Funk, president and chief executive officer of Omnitek Engineering.
Funk emphasized Omnitek’s domestic diesel-to-natural-gas conversion business is ramping up since the company’s recent EPA approval of its technology for the widely operated line of heavy-duty Navistar DT466E and DT530E engines. The company is also focused on other diesel engine model conversion opportunities to complement its international growth expansion with partners in Asia, Latin and South America, China and Europe.
“Seattle has already converted its refuse trucks and airport taxis to CNG, so extending the environmental and economic benefits of natural gas to the Port of Seattle drayage fleet is an innovative approach to keeping the Port of Seattle competitive in the post-Panamax era of ocean shipping. We think the ability to convert existing assets is crucial for CNG infrastructure development in the United States,” said Stephen Lambo, president of American Strategic Group.
Lambo noted that Puget Sound is a key cargo gateway between Asia and the United States, with one in three jobs in Washington State tied to international trade.
