New-generation compact emissions analyzer for upcoming regulations and carbon neutrality

Development of internal combustion engines that utilize alternative fuels to achieve carbon neutrality, and compliance with the upcoming stricter emissions regulations are essential. To contribute to them, Horiba has developed a new-generation compact emissions analyzer, MEXAcube, based on the company's unique Quantum Cascade Laser-Infrared Spectroscopy (QCL-IR) IRLAM. It can measure nine components such as CO2, NO, N2O, NH3 and HCHO under both laboratory and real driving conditions. This presentation introduces an outline of MEXAcube and its measurement performance capability with actual testing results. In addition, Horiba proposes improvement of R&D efficiency and cost-effective solutions.
