Cummins India launched Retrofit Emission Control Device for genset users

Cummins India Limited, a leading power solutions provider, has collaborated with Pi Green Innovations Pvt. Ltd. to launch an innovative clean air solution called Retrofit Emission Control Device (‘RECD’).

The product was launched at the Cummins India Office Campus in Pune in the presence of Ms. Shveta Arya, Vice President – Distribution Business & New and Recon Parts Organisation (DBU& NRPO), Cummins India, and Mr. Irfan Pathan, Founder & CEO, Pi Green Innovations Pvt. Ltd.

As a part of this contract with Pi Green Innovations Pvt. Ltd., Cummins will be marketing RECD through its vast distribution network in India. RECD is built on filterless technology and is based on electrostatic precipitation fundamentals. It is highly efficient in improving air quality and capturing particulate matter (‘PM’) from the air with more than 70% efficiency.

Speaking at the launch event, Mr. Irfan Pathan, Founder & CEO, Pi Green Innovations Pvt. Ltd., said, “We are honoured to be associated with one of the global leaders like Cummins. This association is not only an encouraging validation of Pi Green’s technology but also of the fact that innovative and meaningful initiatives can lead to a significant transformation. In partnership with Cummins, Pi Green Innovations endeavours to address emissions at the source and make cleaner air accessible to all. ”

RECD’s clear air filterless solution does not require manual cleaning as there is no choking. One of the key advantages of this device is minimal backpressure, which ensures the safety of the Cummins engine. This device also does not need any water, chemicals, or solvents and saves energy as it does not require active regeneration and is not affected by exhaust temperature. It is resistant to a wide range of in-use DG set conditions, and remote installation is also possible. The RECD is installed after the DG exhaust (muffler/silencer), and no modifications to the exhaust are required. The separated particulate matter can be collected and used as a high-value raw material in the paint, dye, and plastics industries, eliminating the need for disposal and secondary contamination. The product is all weatherproof and needs minimal maintenance with a simple, efficient, and sturdy construction that provides constant performance and a long operational life.
