Component Details:
An incomplete burnt gas in exhaust is return to the cylinder. EGR works by recalculating a portion of an engine's exhaust
gas back to the engine cylinder. Intermixing the incoming air with recalculated exhaust gas dilutes the mix with inert gas
and in turn reduce the combustion temperatures for reducing NOx emissions.
