This test engine is the centerpiece of a project called NEMo, a German acronym meaning "lowest emission diesel engine for trucks." Researchers at the Technische Universitaet Muenchen have used it to demonstrate simultaneous reduction of nitrogen oxides and soot, without resorting to a catalytic converter.
