Air Induction System with Emissions Control

Visteon's Air Induction System with Emissions Control reduces the evaporative emissions of vehicles during engine off conditions. During engine operation, it sends filtered air to the engine while providing noise control with minimal power loss.

Engineered to prevent the escape of engine fuel and oil vapors, the system utilizes a patented trapping technology that captures hydrocarbons exiting the engine and prevents them from entering the atmosphere. Through the process of adsorption, the trap attracts and holds the fuel vapors during engine-off conditions. When energy is added to the trap (by way of intake air flow during engine operation) the stored vapors are released back into the engine for consumption through combustion.

Benefits

• Reduces pollution caused by fuel vapors escaping into the environment.
• Offers distinct configurations for packaging flexibility – traps can be placed in the air filter, air cleaner box, clean air ducts, resonators or Engine Induction System plenum spaces.
• Provides scalability because it is designed and developed as part of a total air induction system to minimize the effects of the trap on engine performance.
• Reduces warranty costs for manufacturers because it can be integrated with Visteon's Long Life Filtration System creating a non-serviceable system.
