Could we start by asking for some general observations of the forces driving the automotive emission technologies and how Tenneco is responding?
Wolfgang Reuter: The automotive emission technology is mainly driven by increasingly stringent emissions regulations globally. Concurrently, the emerging CO2 debate requires fuel-efficient engines like diesel or lean-burn gasoline engines with high demands in particulate emissions reduction and especially in NOx reduction technology. Tenneco is responding to increasingly stringent emissions regulations worldwide with highly-engineered emissions control systems for diesel and gasoline engine applications. For diesel aftertreatment, Tenneco is well-known as a pioneer in supplying particulate filters for automotive applications, currently supplying more than 20 passenger car models as well as medium-duty vehicles. In addition, the company recently acquired the ELIM-NOx technology, which advances Tenneco’s existing Selective Catalytic Reduction technology by offering a fully-integrated emissions control system that is designed to reduce NOx emissions by 70-90%. Globally, Tenneco has won pr
