CATAGEN provides advanced emissions testing catalyst ageing and durability services using electrically driven reactor technology.
Generate high quality, regulator data while reducing testing time, cost and CO₂.
THE REAL WORLD CHALLENGES
OF EMISSIONS COMPLIANCE
OEM and Aftertreatment teams must deliver compliant solutions under rising costs, complexity and risk. CATAGEN provides precise, repeatable, electrically driven emissions testing.
Increasing regulatory complexity
Tighter limits, more testing conditions and constantly evolving global standards.
Time and cost pressure
Engine based testing is expensive, slow to adapt and hard to scale with compressed development timelines.
Correlation and durability risk
Manufacturers must prove lab ageing and performance testing reflects real world catalyst and aftertreatment degradation.
New fuels and technologies
Hybridisation, alternative fuels, hydrogen, SAF and advanced catalyst materials introduce new degradation mechanisms legacy test struggle to replicate.
ELECTRICAL DRIVEN REACTOR TECHNOLOGY FOR EMISSIONS TESTING
CATAGEN’s OMEGA Technology is a proprietary, electrically driven reactor platform that replicates real-world catalyst and aftertreatment conditions without a full engine or vehicle system.
It enables accelerated ageing with high control and repeatability, reducing test cost, programme time and CO₂ emissions while delivering engine-representative, regulator-relevant results.
What this means for you:
– Faster screening and development decisions
– Consistent conditions for reliable comparison
– Reduced carbon footprint of testing programmes
High control. High repeatability. Low emissions.

ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Green Emissions Testing at CATAGEN?
Green Emissions Testing at CATAGEN is a suite of advanced emissions testing, catalyst ageing and durability services delivered using electrically driven reactor technology. It enables highly controlled, engine-representative testing without the need for a full engine or vehicle system.
CATAGEN Green Emissions Testing provides accelerated catalyst ageing, aftertreatment performance characterisation, diesel aftertreatment ageing and expert data interpretation to support aftertreatment and emissions development, correlation studies and regulatory compliance. We have also developed the OMEGA DAAAC reactor for diesel applications using the Diesel Aftertreatment Accelerated Ageing Cycle.
How is CATAGEN's Green Emissions Testing different from traditional engine-based testing?
CATAGEN replaces continuous engine operation with a synthetic gas recirculating reactor (OMEGA Technology) that is powered electrically enabling precise control of temperature, gas composition and flow. This delivers faster, more repeatable ageing and durability testing while reducing cost, complexity and development time.
What is Catalyst Ageing and why is it important for emissions compliance?
Can CATAGEN support alternative fuels and new powertrain technologies?
Is CATAGEN Green Emissions Testing suitable for regulatory submissions?
How do I get started with CATAGEN Green Emissions Testing?
The best way to get started is to speak with our emissions testing specialists. We work with customers to understand application requirements, development timelines and compliance objectives before defining an appropriate testing programme.
