National Science Foundation Award-Winning Technology Reduces Pollutants from Marine Diesel Emissions

First VIABLE marine diesel exhaust treatment system that reduces nitrogen oxide 80% and carbon dioxide 50% from marine diesel emissions. STec Technology and Walter Schulz has been awarded a U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) to conduct research and development work on the removal of NOx and CO2 from the diesel emissions of marine vessels. Proposals submitted to the NSF/ SBIR program undergo a rigorous merit-based review process and only about 5% of applicants nationwide received this funding from the National Science Foundation. “NSF is proud to support this technology of the future by thinking beyond incremental developments and funding the most creative, impactful ideas across all markets and areas of science and engineering, said Andrea Belz, Division Director of Innovation and Partnerships at NSF.
