To decrease the generation and emission of greenhouse gases especially NOX (Nitrogen Oxide Components) OEM company designed a new system called Exhaust Gas Recirculation or EGR.In this system, a portion of exit gasses from the exhaust back into the engine cylinder to reduce the formation of NOx by lowering the combustion temperature.This helps in decreasing overall greenhouse gas emissions from ve …

Fire-resistant hydraulic oil is specially formulated to prevent or minimize the risk of fire in hydraulic systems, especially in environments where the risk of fire or explosion is high. These oils are used in hydraulic systems that operate under high temperatures or where there is a potential for exposure to flames or sparks.There are several types of fire-resistant hydraulic oils: Water-containi …
