Diesel Particulates and NOx Emissions - USA
2012 Dates to be Confirmed

Course details

This unique short course is organised and administered by the University of Leeds, UK, and the Centre for Diesel Research, University of Minnesota, and has run in the USA for automotive engineers for the last five years. The course has been held in the UK for over 20 years, and is annually updated, drawing upon speakers and companies that have developed expertise in their field.

Who should attend

The course will be relevant to engineers, researchers and teachers in diesel engines, combustion and pollution. It will be suitable both as an overview for those new to the diesel particulate and NOx area and to provide a wider awareness for those already working in this field. Although the emphasis is on the transport sector, the course is also relevant to the stationary diesel and marine diesel market. In addition, it is of relevance to environmentalists engaged on atmospheric PM10 measurement and research, where diesel particulates have been identified as a significant contributor. The course is also relevant to those involved in emissions regulation formulation and in transport planning for emissions reduction.

Accreditation

This course is in association with the the Institution of Diesel and Gas Turbine Engineers, which is devoted to the advancement of Diesel and Gas Engines, Gas Turbines and related products and technology.
