BLUETEC SYSTEM

    Assalamualaikum and viel Glück its means good luck, today I want to give some knowledge of what the bluetec system is, how bluetec works, what cars have used this system and what are the advantages of buying a car that has this system in terms of car users and the environment.

        WHAT IS BLUTEC ??

    The marketing term for engines with cutting-edge NOx-reducing technology for vehicle emissions control in diesel-powered vehicles is BlueTEC, according to the Mercedes-Benz Group. The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system, which uses diesel exhaust fluid, and the NOx adsorber system known as DeNOx, which combines various NOx decreasing systems with an oxidizing catalytic converter and diesel particle filter, are two examples of the technology found in BlueTec vehicles.

    WHAT CARS USING BLUTEC SYSTEM ??

    At the 2006 North American International Auto Show, Daimler debuted BlueTEC in the Mercedes E-Class (using the DeNOx system) and GL-Class (using SCR). These BlueTEC vehicles were then accepted in 45 and 50 states in the US, respectively (a 45-state vehicle does not meet the more stringent California emission standards that have also been adopted by four other states).

    In order to expand the market for diesel passenger cars in the United States, Daimler AG has agreed to share BlueTEC technology with Volkswagen and Audi.

As part of the BlueTec licencing initiative, VW unveiled the Jetta Clean TDI, the Tiguan concept, and the Touareg BlueTDI. The Jetta and the Tiguan use NOx adsorbers, while the Touareg uses a Selective Catalytic Reduction catalytic converter.

    The conclusion of VW Group's collaboration with Daimler AG on BlueTEC was announced in August 2007. The popularity of the VW TDI branding serves as justification for this shift. VW refused to brand a product that it would release onto the market with a rival's logo. When VW's own technology proved ineffective, they reprogrammed the engine control to display erroneous results during pollution tests.

    The Mercedes Sprinter has a BlueTEC variant by 2010. The engine of that car now produces 188 horsepower (140 kilowatts), up from the non-BlueTec engine's 154 horsepower, thanks to the BlueTEC systems' ability to eliminate a large portion of the EGR (115 kilowatts).

        HOW BLUETEC WORK TO REDUCE POLLUTION ??

1. A diesel oxidation catalyst reduces the amounts of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons (HC) released from the exhaust.
2. Oxides of nitrogen are first removed by a DeNOx catalytic converter.
3. A particulate filter captures and holds soot particles, burning them off when the filter gets full.
4. If the above are not sufficient to meet the prevailing emissions regulations, a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) catalytic converter will convert the remaining nitrogen oxides to nitrogen and water; so-called diesel exhaust fluid (solution of urea and water) is injected into the exhaust gas stream to enable the conversion. Drivers are advised to maintain the DEF tank refilled as needed because if the DEF tank is empty, the engine may enter a limp-home mode to prevent vehicles from exceeding pollution rules. Some commercial vehicles have a request or inhibit switch that enables the DEF injection to be "postponed" because it can momentarily increase temperatures and lower power output. For example, if the vehicle is ascending a gradient, it may be necessary to delay the DEF injection cycle.

        

        WHAT THE BENEFITS BUY THE CAR WITH BLUETEC SYSTEM ??

1. Estimates of fuel economy 6 to 8 mpg more than comparable gasoline-powered 
2. Ease of adaptation due to the technology's use in numerous Mercedes-Benz models, including the E-Class, GLE, GLK, and more
3. Performance benefits, such as increased torque returns and towing capacities
4. Environmental advantages since cleaner air is produced when emissions are broken down into safe components.

       

        CONCLUSION

    For the conclusion, BlueTec is one of the key achievements in achieving cleaner diesel emissions, helping to meet ever-tougher pollution standards. It assists in reducing Nox emissions by up to 80%. We can achieve improved fuel efficiency, which gradually lessens the reliance on oil imports and conserves valuable exchange. Extreme Low Sulphur Diesel (ULSD) Sox emissions are also blocked by their introduction and use, which lessens the obnoxious smell of diesel exhaust. As a result, we will state that BlueTec is without a doubt the future of diesel technology for the clean enviroment.
