Key Factors Considered for Different Types of SCR

Efficiency of the catalyst

80% to 90% based upon type

Must achieve the 0.02 g/bhphr standard

Balancing Act
Up front Cost vs Fuel Economy

Precious metal content

Needed to catalyze NOx

and ammonia

Adds to the up front cost

Affects system efficiency

Engine-out NOx level

Higher = less particulates

Less PM = Fewer regens

Fewer regens = less fuel

consumed

What Types of Technology Exist for Near-Zero Emissions in

North America?

Increased EGR could possibly be used as a bridge strategy

as an SCR solution is developed and implemented.

LNT-SCRis a strategy used by Daimler today for light duty

applications that has significant drawbacks for trucking.

Urea-SCRuses DEF as the source of ammonia to

economically reduce NOx at remarkably efficient levels.

SCR Advantages Summary

SCR = Better Economics

Clear Advantage for SCR

SCR = Cleaner

Not Just Compliant, But Cleanest

SCR = Convenient

Progress Being Made

SCR = Reliable Hardware

Successful In EuropeValidation
Well Under Way in North America

SCR Acceptance Is Growing Fast But Still

Needs Momentum
Daimler Trucks

SCR = Better Economics

SCR Saves Diesel in Three Steps
Less Active
Regeneration

Less Particulate
Matter

Less Heat Rejection

The higher engine-out

NOx result in lower PM
levels, therefore fewer
DPF regenerations.

The higher engine-out

NOx allow for DPF
regenerations at lower
temperatures, therefore
increasing passive
regenerations and
reducing active
regenerations.

Less Diesel Consumed

The combination of
EGR, DPF and SCR
exceeds the emission
standards while saving
diesel.

The internal
combustion process
can be tuned for higher
engine-out NOx levels.
This results in higher
combustion
temperatures, less
heat rejected and
therefore higher
thermal efficiency.

SCR = Better Economics

1. Diesel Fuel
Savings

Annual Fuel Savings

2. Total Fluid
Costs Savings

3. DEF Pricing
Relative to Diesel

$9,150

DEF Price = $2.50

Diesel Price = $4.00

Per Typical Truck from SCR

$7,500

@ 3% = 583 gallons/yr
@ 4% = 769 gallons/yr
@ 5% = 952 gallons/yr

$3,800

3% fuel savings

$2,000

5% fuel savings

Under This Scenario, Customers Save $2.40 to $4.20 In Diesel

Environmental sustainability is the

hallmark of our organization
SCR is really going to work in its entirety
Daimler has done a good job reassuring me
that SCR is the solution and that Daimler
has the answers

It looks pretty easy,

if Europe can do it we can too
Any time you can save 3% to 5%
its a big savings

North American Customers Are Learning About SCR

From European Customers

European carriers had the same concerns

we have. Today, nobody even gives them a
remote thought
Operationally, the cost of fuel plus the cost
of DEF equals a savings advantage

Im satisfied, confident and looking forward

to 2010 (SCR)
The engines might cost a bit more but they
run better with SCR, that was proven by
European customers who have been running
with SCR for two years
