Abstract: Technical developments to improve efficiency and to lower NO2 emissions have been introduced over the years on new production engines. This paper discusses the application of these developments to existing equipment. Since improvement of efficiency and reducing undesirable emissions are not always compatible, each topic is handled separately. A particular family of two-cycle, spark-gas engines are reviewed and retrofits that can boost horsepower and improve fuel consumption are given. Approximate, but relative, prices for the conversions are provided so the improvements can be compared on an economic basis. Much work has been done on new engines to lower exhaust emissions. This paper reviews the formation of NOx and describes methods to lower the pollutant output in twocycle, spark-gas engines. The subject is approached from a retrofit basis as well as from an adjustment of the BACT parameters.
