We have seen that a number of the filtration technologies employed have been retrofitted to enhance the operation of existing underperforming equipment. This has provided automotive manufacturers with cost effective solutions involving the installation of advanced pretreatment equipment involving separators, magnetic filters and electropositive RO (reverse osmosis) pretreatment. This has resulted in cost savings as well as the environmental benefits arising from reduced use of consumable filtration components. As we start to move away from the internal combustion engine, the specifications on particulate removal in engine production and operation will become tighter increasing the need for widespiead use of pretreatment technologies on existing production lines. The predicted development of electronic systems in vehicles, the use of electric motors and fuel cells, and the introduction of HCCI (homogeneous charge compression ignition) engines and exhaust gas recirculation techniques, are all factors that will demand superior filtration products with high removal specifications in the medium term. This is likely to drive development of nanocoating technology and accelerate the ongoing trend for more compact and integrated filtration solutions.
