The search is on for a train operator to undertake a free trial of the latest fuel and emissions reduction technology for diesel locomotives in the UK and Europe.
The search begins today to find a train operator that will test the latest Carbon Abatement Technology to address the problems faced by rail operators to reduce their environmental impacts as a consequence of their business operations. To date there has been nothing like the technology offered by Middlesbrough based Carbon Abatement Technology, which is a trading arm of Re-Freshco Ltd.
The technology has been designed to increase fuel efficiency and lower diesel particulate matter emissions. Using waste energy from the diesel engine the, ECO-CAT as it is known will use proven scientific principals to deliver its benefits during operation on passenger and freight trains across Europe.
Derek Foxcroft, MD of Carbon Abatement Technology said “Disruptive Technology has been called for to help us all save money and reduce our everyday impacts on this planet. ECO-CAT will deliver these savings for almost all petrol and diesel transport applications especially in road, rail and bus transport industries.”
ECO-CAT is a retro-fit technology which allows vehicle operators to “plug and play” with the ECO-CAT specifically designed for their application and gain immediate benefits from the technology. There is, according to Mr. Foxcroft “Nothing like this in the market today, we are the sole European source of the ECO-CAT”. The search will encompass long and short haul rail operators. Additional transport applications are available according to the company for Bus and Commercial Vehicles fleets.
