Back to top MIRATECH Receives CARB Verification For LTR MIRATECH’s new Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is now CARB Level 3 Plus Verified.  The best in class LTR regenerates at temperatures as low as 500°F/260°C. HOW IT WORKS The LTR system has a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) built into the front of the filter housing that reduces the engine exhaust emissions such as CO, HC, ... Back to top U.S. Congress approves 50 percent increase in Diesel Emissions Reduction Act Funding. The federal budget package recently approved by the U.S. House and U.S. Senate includes a 50 percent increase in funding for a highly effective clean air program that reduces emissions from older diesel powered engines, vehicles and equipment, according to the a December 16, 2014 news release from Diesel Technology Forum. Funding for the Diesel ... Back to top Alabama rolling out electronic air emissions reporting system. The Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) is in the process of converting to an Air Emissions Electronic Reporting System (AEERS). Currently, emissions estimates are submitted as paper reports where the data must then be entered by ADEM into an emissions database to assess the applicable fees for the prior calendar year. The proposed AEERS ... Back to top Oklahoma DEQ schedules free Air Emissions Inventory reporting workshops. Oklahoma’s Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is scheduling an Emissions Inventory Workshop aimed primarily at those completing an Emissions Inventory for the first time. It is an opportunity to hear about changes and improvements to the reporting process, to review QC procedures and avoid common errors. Participants will also receive training on Redbud, Oklahoma's secure ...
