Ayisekho inganekwane. Enye yemikhiqizo ihlose ukuhlinzeka ngemiphumela yangempela yokuvutha!
Kusukela ngekota yesibili ka-2016, i-Opel izoqala ukushicilela idatha yokusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli yezinhlobo ezithile zezimoto, zikalwa ngokomjikelezo we-WLTP, obonisa kangcono izimo zokushayela zansuku zonke.
Ngokuzimisela kwayo, i-Opel ithatha ezinye izinyathelo zokuhlangabezana namazinga okukhishwa kwe-CO2 ne-NOx yesikhathi esizayo. Kusukela ngekota yesibili yonyaka wezi-2016, ngaphezu kolwazi olusemthethweni mayelana nokusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli kanye nokuphuma kwe-CO2, inkampani izophinde ishicilele idatha yokusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli eqoshwe kumjikelezo we-WLTP (Inqubo Yokuhlola Imoto Yomhlaba Evumelana Abagibeli). Ngaphezu kwalokho, onjiniyela bakadizili basanda kuqala umsebenzi wokuthuthukisa izinhlelo ze-selective catalytic reduction (SCR) ukunciphisa ukukhishwa kwe-nitrogen oxide. Lolu wuhlelo lokuzithandela olwandulela umthetho we-Real Road Emissions Test (RDE), ozosebenza kusukela ngo-2017. U-Opel uzibophezele ekunikezeni imininingwane esobala ezikhungweni ezibhekele ukugunyazwa kwezimoto.
“Imicimbi nezingxoxo zamasonto nezinyanga ezedlule zibeke imboni yezimoto esicongweni. Ngakho sekuyisikhathi sokwenza iziphetho bese uqala ukulingisa, kusho isikhulu se-Opel Group uDkt. Karl-Thomas Neumann. “Kuyangicacela ukuthi ingxoxo ngodizili isifinyelele kwangqingetshe futhi akukho okuzophinde kufane. Ngeke sikuzibe lokhu, futhi ukushintsha umbono weqiniso elisha kuwumthwalo wemboni yezimoto.”.
Ukusetshenziswa kwamafutha kanye nokukhishwa kwe-CO2
Kusukela ngekota yesibili yonyaka wezi-2016, ngaphezu kolwazi olusemthethweni mayelana nokusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli kanye ne-CO2 ephumayo kumamodeli akwa-Opel (kusukela nge-Astra entsha), izibalo zokusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli ezirekhodwe kumjikelezo we-WLTP nazo zizoshicilelwa. Le nqubo iye yamukelwa kabanzi embonini njengemelela kakhulu izimo zangempela zokusebenza kwemoto yamakhasimende.
Kusukela ngo-2017, i-New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) izothathelwa indawo yinqubo yesimanjemanje, evumelanayo yokuhlola imoto yabagibeli (WLTP), ngokwezinhlelo ze-European Union. I-WLTP, nayo eyenziwa ngaphansi kwezimo zaselabhorethri, isekelwe ekuhloleni okunzima okumelela kakhulu ukusetshenziswa kwangempela kukaphethiloli kanye nokukhishwa kwe-CO2 okuvela kuthrafikhi yomgwaqo. Umjikelezo omusha wokuhlola uvumela, ngaphezu kwakho konke, ukuthola imiphumela esezingeni, ekhiqizekayo futhi eqhathanisekayo.
Ukwehliswa kwe-catalytic okukhethiwe
I-Opel isivele ithatha izinyathelo zokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwe-nitrogen oxide. Umkhiqizi waseRüsselsheim useqale umsebenzi wokuxazulula izinkinga zokuthuthukisa ukusebenza kahle kwezinhlelo zokwelashwa kwegesi ephumayo ezinjinini zikadizili ze-Euro 6 zisebenzisa i-selective catalytic reduction (SCR). Lokhu okokuthuthukisa ukusebenza kwalezi zinhlelo ngokuhambisana nezincomo ze-RDE zesikhathi esizayo. I-RDE iyindinganiso yangempela yokuhlola ukungcola emgwaqeni ehambisana nezindlela ezikhona futhi ikala ukukhishwa kwemoto ephuma emotweni ngokuqondile emgwaqeni.
“Ukuhlaziya kwethu ezinyangeni ezedlule kukhombisile ukuthi asizisebenzisi izinsimbi ukuthola ukuthi imoto ihlolwa yini ebhentshini lokuhlola. Kodwa-ke, sikholelwa ukuthi singaqhubeka sinciphisa ukukhishwa kwe-nitrogen oxide ezinjinini ze-Euro 6 ezihlome ngezinhlelo ze-SCR. Ngale ndlela, sizozuza intuthuko mayelana nokuhlangabezana nezidingo ze-RDE zesikhathi esizayo, kugcizelela uDkt. Neumann. "Sizosebenzisa ubuchwepheshe be-SCR njengohlelo oluyinhloko lwezinjini zikadizili ze-Euro 6 ngenkathi sithuthukisa ubuchwepheshe ukuze sithuthukise ukusebenza kahle kwezinhlelo zokuqeda igesi ephumayo," kunezela uDkt. Neumann.
Umsebenzi wokuthuthukisa izinhlelo ze-SCR zezinjini ze-Euro 6 usuqalile. Silindele ukuthi imiphumela yabo izotholakala ukuze isetshenziswe ekukhiqizeni ngobuningi kusukela ehlobo lika-2016. Sizophinde futhi senze uhlelo lokuzithandela lokwaneliseka kwamakhasimende oluhlanganisa izimoto ezingu-43 kakade ezisemigwaqweni yaseYurophu (i-Zafira Tourer, imodeli ye-Insignia kanye ne-Cascada). Ukulinganisa okusha kuzotholakala kulawa mamodeli ngokushesha nje lapho sekutholakala. ”
Isikhulu sakwa-Opel, uDkt Neumann, siphinde sifuna ukuthi kube sobala ukucobelelana ngolwazi phakathi kwabakhiqizi bezimoto neziphathimandla zase-Europe. “E-US, izinkampani zidalula umqondo ophelele wokulinganisa kuziphathimandla. Ngingathanda ukuthi lo mkhuba wamukeleke naseYurophu.” Ngokunjalo, i-CEO yakwa-Opel ingathanda ukumema bonke abakhiqizi bezimoto abasebenzela e-Europe ukuthi benze isivumelwano sokuthuthukisa ukungafihli kokuhamba kolwazi.
