L-ispeċjalista tal-filtrazzjoni Mann+Hummel u l-kumpanija tar-riċiklaġġ u tas-servizzi ambjentali Alba Group qed jespandu s-sħubija tagħhom biex jindirizzaw l-emissjonijiet tal-vetturi.

The two companies launched a pilot project at the start of 2020 in Singapore, fitting Alba Group’s recycling trucks with PureAir fine dust particle filter roof boxes from Mann+Hummel.

Is-sħubija kienet ta’ suċċess u issa l-kumpaniji qed jippjanaw li jwaħħlu aktar mill-flotta Alba b’kaxxi tas-saqaf PureAir.

Id-disinn tal-kaxxa tas-saqaf huwa adattat tajjeb għal trakkijiet u trakkijiet minħabba li ġeneralment joperaw b'veloċitajiet aktar baxxi f'ambjenti fejn hemm konċentrazzjoni għolja ta 'partikuli fl-arja ambjentali. Mann+Hummel jgħid li dawn huma l-kundizzjonijiet ta 'prestazzjoni ideali għall-kaxxa tas-saqaf, li jfisser li dawn il-prodotti jistgħu jnaqqsu b'mod sinifikanti l-emissjonijiet minn dawn il-vetturi.

“Although electric vehicles are becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide, particulate emissions are still a major problem, especially in cities,” said Franck Bento, director of sales for New Products at Mann+Hummel. “Our technology can make a real difference in tackling this problem, so we’re excited to continue our partnership with the Alba Group and help them install more of our roof boxes in the near future.”

“We’re always looking for ways to reduce our environmental footprint and the PureAir fine dust particle filters provide a really effective way of reducing the particulate pollution generated by our trucks on their rounds,” said Thomas Mattscherodt, head of the Project Management Office at Alba W&H Smart City Pte Ltd in Singapore.
