Any ideas of when we'll see it at the pumps? Can we get a convertion? (would we want it?, what would it smell like?)


Thanks,

I'll have to ask next time I'm in Cummins (quite often in there to repair IT equipment

So who's going to collect the stuff? Someone's going to be spending an awful lot of time on the fells with a bucket!

I work for Cummins and developed the technology and injection equipment, THIS ARTICLE IS BOLLOX. It is UREA that is the important ingredient. Urea IS found in urine, inc human urine. Urea is made in millions of tonnes each year for fertiliser, also called AdBlue by Yara, Dureal, etc and urea solution is available at many petrol stations. It doesn't replace diesel, but it does reduce NOx.

See here:- http://www.findadblue.com/

If any one want to know anything about Cummins and this technology drop me a line.

It was not actually developed in Darlington at all. Media hype is usually wrong anyway.
