Exhaust Gas Recirculation Systems: Overview

Exhaust Gas Recirculation Systems

Overview

The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system controls the oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions. Small amounts of exhaust gases are recirculated back into the combustion chamber to mix with the air/fuel charge. The combustion chamber temperature is reduced, lowering NOx emissions.
