What is
RECD?

A Retrofit Emission Control Device is an after-treatment system installed on existing diesel generators to significantly reduce harmful exhaust emissions and meet CPCB compliance requirements.

WHO WE ARE

About Our Company

We're a leading retrofit emission control device provider, working as a manufacturer, supplier, dealer, distributor, trader, exporter, and service provider for clients all over India.

We care about cleaner air and stricter environmental rules, so we design our solutions to not just meet, but beat, tough standards like the latest CPCB norms. Industries trust us because our devices actually cut down harmful emissions from diesel generator sets and keep things running smoothly.

We've always pushed for better ways to control pollution. Our emission control devices for DG sets use tried-and-tested technology, built to last and ready to handle changing regulations.

After years in the power backup world, we're still focused on cutting genset pollution. We work side-by-side with top innovators and technocrats, playing our part in the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP). As an authorised channel partner for type-approved devices, we provide reliable emission control solutions for diesel generators, from 15 kVA up to 2500 kVA.

What We Offer:

  • Solutions with precise engineering for efficient emission control.
  • Prompt and dependable delivery throughout India.
  • Complete assistance, including setup and post-purchase care.
  • Assisting our clients in following the environmental regulations set forth by the government.

How RECD Reduces Emissions

Understanding the technology behind cleaner diesel exhaust.

The Filtration Process

  1. 1

    Exhaust Capture

    Hot exhaust gases from the DG set enter the RECD system through the exhaust pipe.

  2. 2

    Oxidation Stage

    Diesel Oxidation Catalyst converts CO and hydrocarbons into less harmful compounds.

  3. 3

    Particulate Filtration

    Diesel Particulate Filter traps soot particles, preventing them from entering the atmosphere.

  4. 4

    Clean Exhaust Release

    Treated, cleaner exhaust is released with significantly reduced harmful emissions.

Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC)

Oxidizes carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons (HC) into carbon dioxide and water vapor.

Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)

Captures and stores exhaust soot (particulate matter) to prevent atmospheric release.

Catalytic Converter

Reduces harmful emissions through chemical reactions with precious metal catalysts.

Exhaust Gas Treatment

Additional treatment systems for specific pollutant reduction requirements.

Why RECD is Mandatory

Understanding CPCB regulations and compliance requirements.

CPCB Norms

All DG sets above 15 kVA must comply with Central Pollution Control Board emission standards in non-attainment cities.

Type Approval

RECD systems must be type-approved by CPCB to ensure they meet specified emission reduction standards.

Emission Standards

RECDs must achieve minimum 70% reduction in particulate matter and significant reduction in other pollutants.

Non-Compliance Penalties

Facilities operating non-compliant DG sets face penalties, closure notices, and legal action under environmental laws.

Supporting India's National Clean Air Programme (NCAP)

The NCAP aims to achieve 20-30% reduction in PM2.5 and PM10 concentrations. RECD installation on DG sets is a critical component of this national initiative.
